100% this, you could do all the "green" stuff you want, but the changes need to be driven by government, the best thing we can do is vote
Companies will even do something called "share buybacks" where they buyup shares to reduce the supply of shares to increase the price.
Capitalism optimizes for money above all else. That's why it's broken. That's we need government to put people & environment > money.
Early founders in a company have lots of shares when it goes public. If the company does really well, those shares become very valuable.
I'm not saying they're NOT overpaid. That's just why it is. Though you'll find a lot of CEOs could earn $0 and still be hyper rich.
It's basic supply vs demand.
This is why a job with a 1 year education requirement vs one with 8 years (medical dr) will pay a lot less, because there's a lot more ppl.
Compensation is a tool used to attract skilled people. There are very few ppl capable of being good leaders, so its more competitive.
Then you need a manager to manager those managers, etc. etc. So you get end up getting directors, VPs, CEO/COO/CTO.
The reason company structure is triangle shaped is because for every 5-10 people, you need someone to manage them effectively
Ever heard of too many cooks in the kitchen? You can't have 1000-10000 cooks in the kitchen.
Why board of directors? Because if your company has thousands / tens of thousands of people, not everyone can/should have an equal voice.
Ever heard of a board of directors? The CEO does not have supreme power. They'd get voted out of the position and replaced, i.e. fired.
Why should the CEO earn the same as a "worker"? How about you start your own company and be the CEO and see how well that works out lol
MLMs make their recruits sell shit stuff no one wants, their money comes from recruits buying the product and getting stuck with it.
Most companies provide some value that ppl pay for, creating a revenue stream that is used to pay employees. Companies don't need to grow
Pyramid schemes are illegitimate businesses that do not create any intrinsic value, their only revenue stream is recruiting more members
Banh you!
Only someone not paying attn would drive 70mph into a tunnel with no visibility and about to exit.
This image is a little misleading, if you're doing 70mph right there you're already doing something wrong.
I had a delivery person tailgate someone into my parking garage, then take the elevator to the lobby... I was waiting for them outside.
#1 is no one going to point out "belived"?
This is barking up the wrong tree. Go blast them on their social media handles, not their customer service reps.
Pandora... music? Pandora... streaming service? Pandora.... spotify?
Why not use sliced cheese?! They are wasting so much cheese
I interpreted their comment as a remark on how many legit and informational articles are locked behind paywalls. Don't take it so personally
sauce?
Just because it's not behind a paywall for you doesn't mean it's not for other people...
Amazon's big warehouse is actually not in Seattle for instance, it's in Kent (1 hr south of Seattle).
Amazon is huge, I was talking about the Tech sector (Amazon corporate). People who work in Warehouses don't work in Tech.
