As the title says. Im trying to migrate towards privacy based choices all around. A VPN has been tough, I cant access some websites and i dont think i could convince my wife to adopt using it. I still use it anyway.

I went to Honeygrow for the first time yesterday. Its like a salad version of Chipotle. When i was picking up my order at the counter someone was clocking in by scanning their face. I asked, "do you need to scan your face to clock in?" And she said yes in and out every day.

Ive never seen this anywhere but I dont have a job that requires clocking in anymore. This is also a place that wants you to make a profile (email and phone number) and sign in when placing your order. I opted for "guest" to avoid that.

What is the purpose of this? When i was a kid you had a manager who would know who was working. Is this like some tech solution to removing a manager, or is this something else.

Im 38 now, trying to get back into a 3 day a week routine. I work a high stress job, and i play hockey 2 times a week. Im also married and my weekends are usually full of housework. Lately i feel like I cant stay consistent because i just have no energy any more. I also dont feel like my body is recovering either.

I drink protein shakes, and try to pound energy drinks to keep myself going. Other than that, im out of ideas. Any got any advice on getting energy and recovery at my age?

Thanks to everyone who replied to my prior post on Flock cameras at the entrance to my work.

I worked some emails to my union asking if I could see any contract between our company and Flock. The request was forwarded to the union president who replied to say that the union doesnt have that information and that they follow corporate policy. He asked if there was a specifc concern that is to be investigated.

I planned to follow up with the lawsuits section of the consumer rights wiki page on Flock (sorry links not working on my end) and possibly the video by Ben Jordan, although, i am hesitant to include any sensationalized and entertainment focused content as evidence to white collar proffesionals. That wouldnt be very substantial. I am looking for discrete and well documented evidence that the Flock cameras are recording and serving out more than license plate information.

Does anyone have anything they can share?

Hello, the title sums it up pretty much but here's some details. I live in the US and I have been working for a pretty big company for a few years. I noticed recently that they have put up Flock cameras at all entrances and I really object to it. I would consider a new job but three main factors are really preventing me from doing that. First, I like many of my coworkers and it makes my day easier. Second, I get paid well enough. Third, the job is nearby and its an easy commute. Essentially all the things I want in a job.

What I have done so far: I have contacted my union rep. The response from the union was essentially indifference to the idea. They claim Flock simply sends the data to our normal security team. They did mention that it was discussed recently otherwise. Last note, I work for a place where vandalism would not be possible due to the nature of the facility.

I'm not really sure what else to do but I didn't want to do nothing. What would you do?
