artmonkforHOF Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I understand where he is coming from. With a pair of balls that big, he would need tailors to adjust the inseam of all his pants, and that could easily reach $10 mill by the time it is all said and done.

Duncan Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Stan O'Neal ruined the company. This guy was brought in and has done a decent job cleaning up the mess, but I agree it's pretty bad PR to ask for the bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeysc23 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Ok so he gets millions of dollars to do his job. Good for him. He probably deserves it seeing as how he saved the company a lot of money. But a bonus when your company is still going down the tubes is retarded.

Bang Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 There is a lot of hipocracy too, being a CEO isn't an easy job, it is hard work, and requires skill and talent. CEOs DO get paid alot, but the do a lot too. But they are not the only ones are not the only ones that get paid huge amounts of money. Movie stars get paid ridiculous amounts too, but for some reason people feel better about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez making a combind $24.5 Million dollars on a movie that netted only $4Million. I guess that people just like movie stars better than they like CEOs, but I think that CEOs contribute more to society than Movie stars. Comaring them to movie stars is idiotic. When was the last time i saw a Hollywood studio beg for a taxpayer bailout? I'm going to go WAY out on a limb here and say that the anger and resentment towards these CEOs probably has something to do with the fact that people who work under these priveleged ****s lose their jobs while these clowns collect bonuses of 10s of millions of dollars that they begged Congress to give them. They cut every cost but their own when times are tough, and frankly, if times are tough, the buck stops at the top. These guys may work, but the Big 3 CEOs have worked their companies into the ground. You get rewarded for doing GOOD work. Not for ****ing things up beyond repair, not for having to come begging for taxpayer bailo9uts in their provate jets. They simply don't get it. It's as painfully clear as it's ever going to get. these people believe they are a cut above, that they deserve everything while everyone else deserves to starve. SHF says he fears violence against these people. I'd like to say I advocate it. I'm dead serious. These people have literally ruined good people's lives with their mismanagement and incompetence. And they want to be paid like a king for that job? They should be paid with a brick through their skull. Yeah, they do a lot of work. They just suck at it, and the very idea that this guy will ask for that kind of bonus after begging us to bail him out is beyond ignorant. It's a slap in the face of every American. We should slap back. Hard. ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
