What is green dot?
When someone manages a work-from-home employee by checking that their status in a chat application like Slack, Microsoft Teams, etc., hasn't shifted from a green dot signifying "Present/Available" to an orange, yellow, or red dot signifying "Away", rather than by measuring things like quality and quantity of work output, whether deliverables are met in a timely fashion, customer satisfaction, etc.
With the explosion in employees working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020+, many managers who had been accustomed to prowling cube farms and looking over their employees' shoulders to make sure they were working, resorted to this technique.
"My manager totally does management by green dot. I got yelled at for being 'Away' on Slack yesterday morning because I had to spend half an hour on the phone with my kid's school. I'm going to have to get one of those mouse jigglers."

Green dot - what is it?
A politically correct program that was developed and currently being used in the U.S. Air Force. This program is to raise awareness of sexual assault and how intercede in a bad situation.
But in reality, this program is to encourage all Airmen to dispel any jokes and activities which raises morale. Airmen or NCOs who volunteered to be an instructor for this program usually are the very sensitive politically correct whiny bitches who needs a promotion bullet so they can get the Promote Now or Must Promote in their EPR. They never had any kind of fun because they're the Negative Nancys within their Squadron/Fligt. They call the cool people who loves to have fun and crack jokes within each other "Red Dots". However they can seem nice but they’re likely going to back stab their peers or airmen just to make rank.
Red Dot Airman: Bacon can cure Islamic Fighters from being a suicide bomber.
Green Dot NCO: That's very offensive and it hurts my feelings. You're being a Red Dot. You need to go to Air Force Green Dot training so you can learn some manners.
Red Dot Airman: I see you need to lighten up Francis but whatever it takes to get the promotion.
Green Dot NCO: I will now schedule a Mass Air Force Green Dot Training after duty hours since you’re all being
problematic.
Red Dot Airman: This is why Morale in the Air Force isn’t Pretty Darn Good. You’re Toxic Leadership.

Green dot - what does it mean?
Originating from the game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 it was used to describe a teammate whom you do not know. These team mates will show up on the radar map as green arrows or “Green Dots”. Often used during times of anger or frustration when a fellow team mate is doing something that offends you, “Green Dot” could be shouted over a microphone to encompass any one of the people on your team in hopes that the one committing the offensive action would hear you and stop what they were doing.
Green Dot can also be used in real life to describe others around you that you do not know or are not acquainted with. This includes people at the park, at school or a party.
