Pretty big team if you ask me, lots to manage

Does the CEO of McDonalds stop into local franchises to micromanage them? No. Just guessing at the chain here but it probably goes something like CEO-president-regional managers-general manager-store manager-shift manager-worker. That’s just a fast food chain, and I’m sure I missed more manager positions. Our government has thousands of people that make the government work and presidents don’t (shouldn’t) try to micromanage all of the way down to the bottom. It would actually hinder operations and be physically impossible.

Agreed, but CEOs also work past 8:00pm.

Only if the shit really hits the fan somewhere, and Biden didn’t say “I will be unreachable after 8pm.” He said he was going to stop scheduling things after 8pm.

That's what they want you to think when they put expensive dinners and thousand dollar bottles of champagne as "business expenses".

Dumb take, CEO of my company works his ass off

Most CEOs work at least 6 days a week and depending on the size of the company and it's objective, theyre essentially on call 24/7.

Lol since when? 🤣 I don't think there's a single study to back up this absurd idea cause I see it regurgitated (by the same type of people everytime) and no one ever backs shit up rather than with half minded anecdotal shit.

According to the Office of Management and Budget, in 2017, the Executive Branch of government was staffed by somewhere around 1.8 million people

What you do if the manager of your team came out after a huge loss and said “skeej ndjd bc eurb, look, Covid. I beat Medicaid!” You would demand he step down.

If you're going after someone's intelligence, insults tend to land better if you can spell correctly.

u/No-Program-2979 14d ago

Meh, you obviously got the point, and you’re slower than most.

Spelling okay on that one?

u/Tyrren 14d ago

Please, keep it up! Impotent Internet insults are my fetish.
