Actually it's simple. Work well done? Cool, the employee is working. This "monitoring" mentality needs to fucking die.

But then how do you justify keeping “middle management” hall monitors on a payroll after admitting they’re pointless?

Well, they could focus on distributing or coordinating things and assembling results, things they now leave to those who's job it definitively not is.

It's this thinking that allows the business bro to think that they contribute to the world while they are really no better than you average insurance company.
