    What? It‘s a fuckin’ pizza, my dude.

    An employee does a bunch of work and keeps the company running. Without them, the whole thing comes to a halt.

    CEOs are generally less than useless, often causing lasting damage to their own comany and to other people in the pursuit of making number go up just long enough to cash out. The only reason they get away with it is really just weak consumers and bribing their government.

    No, at the end of the day, the two people sit down to a company-bought meal. The employee gets 1/360th of the pizza and the CEO gets everything else. They can’t eat it all, but they still take it anyway. It’s not about percentages of company money as a whole, it’s about how in the fuck people can think the CEO deserves 359/360ths of a pizza for doing fuck-all but the people doing the real work need to be happy with a piece of paper identifying as a slice of three-cheese.

      Using a pie chart is only useful if there is only 1 employee, if there’s 360 employees the CEO would get 180/360 and everyone else gets .5/360

      Pie chart is a deceptive way of conveying this information

      What part of my comment do you think implied I was supporting the bloated CEO-to-worker pay ratio, that I was minimizing the impact of workers or claiming CEOs are vitally important to the company’s operations?
