Yes, but not sarcastic.

Why does your employer need to track all employees? Do those employees not generally have managers? Are those managers unable to see when an employee is absent? That never seemed to be an issue before such technology existed. Was productivity so down that it became necessary?

Also, don't they have basic timesheets? I'm salaried and I still have to fill out a timesheet.

It says its made to assist managers with decision making.

Not sure on the timesheet thing.
