Forcing your workers to quit through sheer boredom

Bandai Namco to use “expulsion rooms” to compel workers to quit through sheer boredom. Workers reportedly use the room to look for other jobs.

Y'all that's some weak stuff. If I was sent to an expulsion room, I'd work on writing absolute and unmitigated bangers, both fic and non-fic. I'd take grad school classes online. What are they gonna do? Fire me? I'm already in the expulsion room, and firing gives better severance than quiting.

These workers at Bandai Namco could use the expulsion room to work on passion projects, make their own damn games on company time, if not company resources. Or heck, use the expulsion rooms as a union initiative. What will Bandai Namco do? Fire them?
