Clearly it means that your workplace is trying to get rid of bad practises

And that would be the day I put in my notice... time to find a new job with that kind of micromanagement

Making myself a note to look for employment elsewhere.

Serving a customer... "Sorry, i have to write in my work log now, be back soon."

entry log: popping entry log: resigning

My boss has been doing this to us for the last couple of years. Every argument we've had about how ridiculous it is has made him even more intolerable. Welcome to my world OP.

That is so Counter productive. What happens if T the fifteen minute mark you are in the toilet pooping?

So what's your micromanager's name? Nothing like pointless busy work.
