I agree that a boss shouldnt be standing over someone saying it took you 2.5 min to assemble that piece, when you should be assembling them in 2.25 minutes, speed up or youre fired. The problem arises when a boss simply wants to know how long it takes something to be done, they arent even allowed to do something that simple and innocuous.
Lets say you are thinking about putting a conveyor belt system in to transport boxes from pt A to pt B, obviously you would only do this if it made things faster (or easier) on you employees. But the union boss wont let you go out there and time how long it takes the employee to carry the box from pt A to pt B.
