“Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas, recently issued students at two of its campuses new badges with an embedded RFID (radio-frequency identification) chip in order to track their locations.” The schools have turned to radio frequency identification technology to help administrators keep count and track the whereabouts of students on campus. If a student is not in his seat during school time the district doesn’t receive daily funding for that student, because the school has no way of knowing for sure if the student is present. But with the RFID tracking, students that are not at their desk are tracked on campus and counted as being in school that day, and the district receives its daily pay for that student. I think…

It should be as if each task you were making were coming…
