- instagib 2y agoI haven’t ever been to a place that required badging to leave. So they’re using casino style surveillance to track you once you badge in I suppose. >>Even so, at least one Amazon employee seems to have already found a way to circumvent the new attendance policy. This person wrote in the Slack channel that they were able to badge in through one of the back rooms located in their local Whole Foods store (Whole Foods is an Amazon subsidiary). The door didn't unlock, this person added, but the badge-in did register as an attendance on Amazon's internal report. "Could I badge into this door 3 days per week and save myself from having to commute to the office?" the person wrote in Slack.
