The fact that the owner felt necessary to tell employees they needed to have permission from them to even be involved with a program outside of work; such as a music ministry at their church. Since when does a human being have to have permission to do anything when they are no longer on the clock. Also the changing of rules at the convenience of the owner, you can eat at your desk, then next month you can't. You can chew gum one day and the next not. This type of management isn't managing it is trying to control everything even the things that they have no right to control. They may have been the #1 in the industry but it is time for you to wake up you are no longer #1. That is sad because you have the opportunity but you threw it way because your mentality is anyone can be replaced. What you forgot is so can you and if you keep going in the direction you are going you won't have any one to control and that includes your company. You have lost many key people in your company and will continue to eventually you won't have enough work force to keep your company going and the only one to blame is the owner. What is sad is the owner is very smart and has the ability to bring the company to higher levels but not in the way you have done for the last several years. This is America a free county not a communist country with a dictatorship.
