     @arstechnica Either the job is getting done and Dell has no right to anything more or the job isn't getting done and you can fire those workers with cause.

     What, other than petty control over their fiefdoms, do they want?

     @arstechnica Oh, so Dell has opted into paying people to look for another job while they work remotely. That's a nice perk.
