I have a fit bit. I agree, the more you do it, the easier it gets. It's just one of those things. I try to walk to work every day if possible - it's about 3 mi each way. Walking is a much nicer way to start the day compared to mass transit.

It's an arbitrary number that the media likes to tout. There's no real number. 10km / day is about right. If you break it up into pieces (walk to the subway, walk around the office, walk home), it really isn't that big a deal.

At least as long as they still have eggs to lay. Once they run out they are tossed (as in thrown into a landfill). Net / Net, it doesn't end well for either party.

Agreed, you're basically someone else's session who did the right thing and paid up. I fail to understand why anyone with a decent moral compass would want to do this.

Sounds like a terrible place to work. I work at a big corp and one of my jobs is to find people doing silly things like this and eliminate (the tasks) through automation.

My advice - quit and find another job at a more enlightened place.

This can never work. Resume's have only one purpose - they are marketting materials for folks looking for work. Everything else has to be considered within that frame reference.
