Code up an &quot;instant stand-up&quot; team status web page, such that everyone on the team can see at a glance what everyone else is doing, what they just finished, and whether they have any blocks.

Oops, now they have to come up with some other reason for everyone to be physically present at 9 AM sharp.<p>&quot;Flexible hours&quot; have always been BS at <i>almost</i> every company I have worked for.
