- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.

Who said this is even tracked, let alone enforced? Drawing the conclusion that it's enforced seems like a bit of a leap.
That said, if my boss said that to me it would probably sit poorly with me in the moment purely because I just want to focus on my job and GTFO, I don't particularly want to pine for outside when I'm stuck anyways. It's corny and not particularly inspiring, but nothing wrong with it on its face. If somebody was clocking such things that's a huge "find another corporate wage slave camp to sink your labor into" flag.
They said it was a Q2 goal. It will definitely be tracked and not participating will be held against you.
That came off to me as the boss being playful, but its hard to say without knowing more about OP's situation
Setting it as a quarterly goal, with those examples, makes it sound like it's very much a joke and nothing else to me.
A company goal, set with exact numbers? That does sound like quite a bit more coercion than a simple "Guys, look at the cool river we have here. Let's be grateful for the good things we have."
