> a burger flipping business wants to spy on people

"It started at a Burger-G restaurant in Cary, NC on May 17."

  For example, the Manna software in each store knew about employee performance 
  in microscopic detail — how often the employee was on time or early, how 
  quickly the employee did tasks, how quickly the employee answered the phone 
  and responded to email, how the customers rated the employee and so on. When 
  an employee left a store and tried to get a new job somewhere else, any other 
  Manna system could request the employee’s performance record. If an employee 
  had “issues” — late, slow, disorganized, unkempt — it became nearly 
  impossible for that employee to get another job.
