If anyone hasn't heard of Manna (which would be probable) then please read this.

marshallbrain.com...

A quick synopsis. Manna is a computer system that organises a business, orders in food, tells workers to clean the toilets etc. Later on Manna gets a shock system, employees wear a collar and if they don't do something fast enough they get a shock. Pretty far fetched right? Well it seems Canon, a very large company has taken a small step towards this.

If they don't walk fast enough lights flash and alarms go off. Welcome to the world where you truly will be nothing but a drone. Where a computer will be telling you what to do and when, all for your employer to make a fortune and not have to suffer the same. In this future none of us will be able to get out of dead end jobs and raise higher. We will be like serfs to our lords.

Do what you're told or get punished, enjoy.

Thank you for the link to the short story. It was very interesting.

I think I might have chosen the virtual world.

What a great idea to have your mind go somewhere else while your body is working out. That works for me.

The whole concept of the story seems like it could very well be in our future.

Good post OP. Flag for you.
