Wow if their own employee feels the need to Bug the conference room you wonder what his motivation was...money? Or something we should all know about going on?

I think alot of us here would love to be a fly on the wall to understand these companies more.

I remember some instances of coworkers making dumb decisions to spy on management at companies where the stakes were a lot lower. The motivation was a mixture of anxiety (always worried they were getting fired), paranoia (always assumed the executives were talking about them), and hubris (thought they were too clever to get caught).
