Wasn’t that right before he burned all the money to prove it wasn’t the point

have you ever seen a CEO burn a pile of money before tho?

sorry boss, i accidentally spilled my engagement all over the back parking lot

“Governments don't want a population capable of critical thinking, they want obedient workers, people just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept their situation.”
― George Carlin

The quote is about governments ... but in this day in age, this can be applied to corporations, the godfather of modern governments

Remember, the people in the c-suite are not there because they're the best or the smartest. They're not there because they earned their position through hard work an intelligence.

They are in those seats because they are willing to lick the boot of someone who has more money and power. Nobody "takes" a job, they ask for a job or they're permitted one.

CEOs are nothing more than the toadies of those with more money and power. I have gotten a front row seat to this over and over. CISO of my last company is a complete and utter twat. Knows nothing does nothing. However, he does know which boot to lick and he does so with elan. He will persist until he is no longer useful. He's one of the least talented security practitioners I have ever had the displeasure to meet. He's howdy doody come to life.

This is not uncommon. Don't be a c-suite worshipper. Most of them are assclowns. On rare occasion a smart one will get through, but they usually don't last long.

Worker: exactly! it's about flexibility, trust give and take, recognizing we are all people with lives and responsibilities outside of work

CEO: I need you to do overtime till you drop

Rules for thee....

they want the money concerns to be all theirs

aren't CEOs usually paid in stock, which therefore makes them financially motivated to have the company appear to do better?

They must sacrifice an intern for the benefit of the shareholders. The law requires it.

What is money?
