I hope the corporate jet is a Boeing.
Imagine having a job so fucking braindead easy you can live 1000 miles away and only show up three days out of the week.
CEO must be the fucking easier job over there, given that they are a lot of people that are CEO’s of multiple companies at the same time.
The only two requirements are being good at lying and believing your own bullshit.
Presumably this is more of a c/fuck_planes, because there’s no way he’s driving (19 hours nonstop) or taking a train (28–32 hours).
It says he’s taking the corporate jet and he has to be in Seattle at least 3 days a week
This fucking asshole
Of course not. They’ve chartered a private plane for him to fly to the office three times a week.
Y’all would be surprised at how common this has become. I have worked for or with several startups and medium-sized businesses where the company was paying for flights from the other side of the country every week and a corporate apartment or hotel for executives to stay at before flying home for the weekend.
No money for salaries, the private jet lease and corporate penthouse really dig into our profits. Work harder and maybe we can afford a bigger jet!
A friend of mine just got a secretary job for a smallish company and I was surprised to learn that they fly the entire office around on a private jet sometimes just for shits and giggles.
It is kind of infuriating knowing that people are giving up meat and riding their bike in the rain to reduce their carbon foot print while the capitalist class gives zero fucks about our planet because they think their bunkers will save them.
But the rich forgot who built their bunkers. When the shit hits the fan, those workers who built the bunkers won’t have any trouble pouring concrete over the air vents. We’re all in this together and either we all work together to beat climate change or no one will survive climate change.
That’ll last 6 months and then he will quietly get an exemption to work from home
I know these vampires hate humanity and life itself, but I’ll never fully understand why they need to personally show up at great environmental expense to micromanage everything too.
Simple. 1. They have to show up to keep up the illusion that the company needs them. 2. They get off to bossing people around. How are they supposed to feel big and powerful if they can’t see us grovel and jump up to please their every whim?
Tell me why i don’t like Starbucks…
First… Starbucks killed my beloved “Kaffehaus”-culture in vienna.
Now this.
I bought only one fucking coffee there in my whole live. It’s years ago. And it will be the only one in my live.
Oh… and Starbucks is master of tax avoidance
Imagine the CEO demanding the quarterlies from you in one of these bad boys.
Had a VP who was forced to do this (but with commercial flights) 15ish years ago. It was hell and she quit after 4 months. Management was surprised due to their inability to understand people or reality.
Sounds like she made the mistake of trying to do her job herself rather than delegating all the work to her underlings like most execs do.
Nailed it. She was notorious for that.
someone do the math on his one-trip emissions and compare it to the average commute
He’ll superpollute
Might as well use Zoom instead
Niccol successfully negotiated a similar deal when he became the CEO of Chipotle in 2018.
At the time, the fast-casual chain was headquartered in Denver, Colorado … Chipotle moved its headquarters from Denver to Newport Beach three months after announcing Niccol’s appointment.
Checking out Newport Beach there’s a John Wayne Airstrip right there, 5 minute drive. Will probably fly out of that.
They just INSIST that we eat them.
