Coincidence? I'm not sure. It turns out that the CEO of the company I work for pulled in about $7.8 million in the same year that the company “redeployed” over 10,000 employees.

One interesting thing to note about athletes is that they get paid for for performance.

Taking a page from the Delphi playbook (and I am sure a lot more examples can be dug up) everyone is familiar with, the _plan_ was to increase pay for the people running the place into the ground. Or how about the former head of HP who got paid millions for being fired.

There are plenty of lawyers and accountants, but just as many salesmen, engineers and others. “American leaders tend to be lawyers and accountants with experience in obfuscation and penny-watching.” – that’s just not true.
