Authorities in India want doctors and teachers to scan their fingerprints into a computer every day to prove they're at work. [link] The Sandhya Varta newspaper says officials are sick of doctors and teachers in rural Andhra Pradesh taking time off. Officials say doctors are running private clinics in Hyderabad while drawing their state salaries in return for no work. A doctor said: "The government treats us like criminals when it asks us to register our thumb impressions. This crisis of faith will affect our morale tremendously." Well stop skiving off work then!
