Explain yourself before I release the hounds
Charles Montgomery Burns, the owner of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, believes in productivity. “A well oiled machine”, he is often found saying, “is made up of one part human resources, two parts quality equipment, and three parts soul-crushing surveillance.” He is known to have his long skinny fingers in every pie in Springfield and the surrounding boroughs.
“A good worker”, he elaborates, “is a monitored worker. Also non-unionized mind-controlled automatons do a fine job.” So, until he perfects his R&D’s department’s work in cybernetically enhanced capuchin helper-monkeys, he’ll have to settle for keeping a close eye on his employees.
“Those nincompoops think I’m giving them a nifty doo-dad that lets them communicate with acquaintances over the Internet-o-phone,” he says conspiratorially, “but really I’m watching their every move.” His finger, then, wavers precariously over a button marked, “Hounds.”
A high-quality webcam shaped like Monty Burns at his desk includes a large clip that allows it to be attached to your flat-panel monitor or laptop screen.
