Before I retired the oil company I was with installed a 'service' like this on several company trucks. It was explained to the drivers that it would track their every move and record detailed info on where they were and how much time they spent there. The reason for this was to find out which sites were requiring more time to service so the site could be studied. The overall goal was to find ways to cut service time.

About one third of a pipeline gaugers day is spent killing time with landowners and other companies' pipeline workers. They may look like they are drinking coffee, but they are really exchanging information that has saved lives more than once. The management of the companies understand this and expect it.

But one of the VP's started using a company truck to 'tour sites' and he thought the transmitter for this was at the sites. When he found out it was in the truck, and that it was reporting when he stopped off at a remote 'Gentlemen's Club' and how long he was there, the service was discontinued.

The funny part about it was that it was the same VP that had insisted on installing the 'trackers' which was what he called them.

Sounds human to me. As long as it tracks others and not show my misdeeds, I'm good. When it can be turned against me, it;s bad
