Would you let your employer implant a chip in you?

[Kellhound]

No f-ing way in hell would I go for that!

[HumbleDuck]

I can't even tolerate a dress code. Implants? Yea the guy suggesting that to me better be ready for a punch.

[Aeula]

No, but I'd happily implant something sharp and pointy into their head.

If my choice was between having a chip or being jobless I'd rather be jobless. There's plenty of illegal ways to get money if this is forced on people.

[Stormspellz]

situational, for basic door man level security then no, but a security measure for sensitive government work then prob would

[Mormolyce]

I guess this is so you don't forget your pass. Might reduce chance of theft as well.

But personally? Uh, no thanks.

[Polarthief]

My EMPLOYER? LOL no. Now if this was like a Futurama-esque world where we all had chips or some kind of digital technology on us (like a magical computing device that literally everyone owns?) that could be reprogrammed to indicate our location of employment and that could be for convenience and whatnot, then sure.

Good lord though, a chip from my employer; that's just insane.

Hell no. There's 0 reason for something like that to be implanted into you when you could just carry it around with you in your wallet for example. Don't want that kind of shit to be implanted into me.

The only reason ideas like this are being made is because too many fucking idiots lose their pass or ID card or whatever. It's like, if you're that retarded enough to lose something so vital, perhaps you shouldn't be working somewhere that requires even this low of a level of security, because you're a huge liability if someone takes it.

For something as stupid as opening doors? No, Im not that lazy. It would have to improve my productivity in some significant way and be guaranteed not to be some glorified tracking device so they can yell at me for taking a 10 minute shit.

A different office than where I worked did this..... people got harassed.

Basically the gist of the story is people are being implanted with chips for convenience at work - opening doors and such.

I would not. No way.

Are the doors portals, cause that may win me over. Give me teleportation and we'll talk.

[shadowmouse]

Probably not. If the job offered me the right package I wouldn't entirely rule it out, but I consider a rain of frogs more likely.

[Frolk]

As a lazy person, id be cool with this, swipe hand, open door, and in future pay vending machines with a handswipe.

So many people in this thread thats scared of new stuff, reminds me of my grand parents when i try to explain the internet to em.

[Jakexe]

I'd be open to it. Depending on the job and several other variables but I wouldn't exactlyt be jumping at the oppertunity.

[Rahulk]

Where is the MOTHERFUCKINGABSOLUYELYNOTINAMILLIONYEARS!!! option?

[Nanaboostme]

Like dis?

You obviously don't know a lot about what you're explaining

If you think bodily autonomy from data collection and tracking devices is comparable to old people bitching about iPhones please stick to installing your grandma's wifi and never approach a voting booth

[Nadiru]

My policy on getting implants for convenience's sake is the same as Australia's ideal immigration policy: Fuck off, we're full.

[Xargoth6634]

Absolutely fucking not.

[Revi]

No way.

Just give me a keycard, no need to operate it into my body.

[Flarelaine]

Maybe if it was linked to security clearances of a highly paid job. Otherwise just give me a wristband.

[Deleted]

We all know this ends with thieves cutting off my hand to get through doors. Not cool.

[Crillam]

Sure, if I get paid extra for it.
It can be removed.
I get to know every damn detail of what it is and what it can be used for.
