Sometimes the point of a job is to be in a certain place at a certain time, so job places requiring you to follow the clock makes sense in a lot of cases.
If your job is to make at least 25 "thingies", and you make 25, you should be able to go home.
Back when I worked a job with a target (25 work items in this case) it would have been reasonably cheap for them to massively increase productivity by doing that
Finish the day's work and go home
Instead they demanded 25 work items, gave us enough work to deliver around 15 each and wanted us on site regardless of whether work was done
Yeah that's a good point actually, although in those cases you usually can't pull a 2 hour lunch
