The most ruthless thing about lobsters is that if you use the company's provided lobsters for long-term work, you're not just working for your boss; you're also training a "next generation" that can replace your skills. When you leave, the lobster remains, and all your abilities become skills handed over to the boss. In the past, companies provided computers to employees mainly for confidentiality reasons. Now, providing lobsters—think about it—it's quite terrifying. Remember to delete your skills from your computer when you leave.
