In a world of internet tracking, phone call tracking, annual reviews with goal tracking, it's hard to believe someone can go for so long without doing anything at work. In every place of employment I know, you'd be fired after the first warning. Every office I know tracks your work, your unit count, you efficiency. You meet with your boss every year or more often to develop new goals and create ways to quantify and qualify your work, you acheivements, your progress. Every year you revisit last years goals and compare them to your actual performance, counting how many widgets you processed (or whatevery your job is).
I find it hard to beleive that in today's cut-throat world that your employers are unaware of your slack or that you'd be employed much longer.
