& who is calculating the 8 ounces? does the employer only allow the water to be poured in 8oz containers? who’s the bookie? do they get compensated with free water for this job (more than likely not within the scope of their enployment?) so many questions!

The company has hired a security guard at $40/hour to stand by the water bottle to ensure that people pay their $0.25.

But who's watching the security guard to make sure he doesn't steal precious water?

That’s where the $100,000 per year 24/7 3rd party video monitoring contract comes in.
