    Never pity a CEO. Ever. They make a quarter of a million doing less than you with only a golden parachute.

      You haven’t seen CEO compensation lately. She makes between $6-12m depending on bonuses and stock options.

      Yup. By all accounts she’s been a shitty boss everywhere she works, with a penchant for dealing with bad news by sticking her head in the sand. Big Trump fan too.

        How is it you can tell a trump tard by the way they look. It’s just as powerful of effect as gaydar.

      I dunno, being a CEO is a stressful job, the buck stops with you ultimately. Yes they’re paid very well, which counters this a bit!

        lol, fucking please. The buck stops with them? So when they over hire and fuck up profits do they get fired or is it all the staff? And when they do get fired do they get packages for fucking up? What about regular employees? Get outta here with that ignorant nonsense.

        I think the problem is that most often the buck doesn’t stop with them. They always find a way to find a scapegoat instead. If they were 100% liable for anything wrong the company does, we’d be on the right path. But it’s always a “rogue employee”.
