33F8461 is the part number of the Mouse Ball retainer.............
For later.

During the coof telework days I called a co-worker (THE laziest EVER) and encouraged her to buy a helfer grandfather clock on eBay. When asked why,I replied that she could wind it once each day, tape her mouse to the pendulum and at least the boss might THINK you’re working, because your station is asleep all day and if I can see it, the bosses can too.
...then the fight started
Buy “herself”
If a company has to surveil mouse clicks to tell if their employees are productive there isn’t really any hope for them.
If idiot managers measure their emplyees computer activity as a performance metric then they need to reconsider their metrics.
If moving a mouse, clicking buttons, and filling out forms are what you measure then that’s what your organization does.
Maybe they need to focus on the actual reason their organization exists.
My job is remote. I tell them when I’m going to be out. They don’t care since I’m still available to clients.
Same here. If I’m “mouse-jiggling,” things will get held up or not done. It would be quite noticeable.
Sounds like some companies could save money by removing the “mouse jigglers” and replacing them with people who work.
A glance at the reviews and apparently the device repeats the time cycle, no random, no pseudo-random, no nothing.
Six bucks, true random is complicated.
The output would be similar to the oscillating fan.

A government job, 20% of workers do 80% of the work, 20% do NOTHING, and the rest mostly just show up.

Better see your eye doctor and NO DRIVING!!!
Or try a large magnifying glass and see if you can make out the BRIGHT RED link in #2... No driving with the magnifying glass!!!
HAVE YOU TRIED A SEEING-EYE DOG?
A text reader with GIANT TYPE!
Then again, SADLY YOU CANNOT READ THIS REPLY.
I suspect you might be correct.
Thank you!
Those aren’t going anywhere.
I agree.

I had a new director that came out of corporate nowhere and was dumber than I am!
He would kick me under the table at meetings because BSing the heavys is a bad idea, so I stick with my best REAL numbers.
Every time I was in his office he was logged into buying tickets, eBay, games... Never ever did anything work-related; THE WINDOW AT HIS BACK REFLECTED EVERYTHING!
He spent hours at the onsite gym? and was still flabby.
Because it was a large R&D center with fun things like high-pressure hydrogen and worse everywhere; EVERYONE is tracked at each door/ gate for safety reasons.
After some months he vanished without so much as a goodbye email.
Just don’t jiggle your mouse on a ZOOM call!
Lol what a bunch of lazy butts ripping of their employers who were dumb enough to keep letting them work from home
That cartoon about the mentor is so true. My wife had an EVP who claimed he “mentored” hundreds of people at the same time — it was nothing more than ass-licking and self-promoting, and it made the guy feel so good about himself.
The Peter Principle says it all: “In a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence” — which would be fine but for the corollary: “In time, every post tends to be occupied by an employee who is incompetent to carry out its duties.”
Anyone “working” in an office for 8 hours a day is hardly ever productive for 4 hours.
