Pen is mightier than the sword

CEO here (seriously). I would like to officially state that avoiding actions that would entice someone to assassinate me has not put an undue burden on my career. Just want to put that out there.

Consider giving your company to your employees.
- It is a C Corp. Ownership is split between the senior staff, and I am not a majority holder and I am nowhere near the highest paid employee. Every senior staff hire gets ownership.
  CEO doesn't mean owner. In my case I am more of club coach managing a bunch of star athletes.
- This is the same as owning a car, and then someone walks up to you on the street and says "consider giving your car to that man who is walking".
Does that mean you don't do bad shit, or you're just not afraid of being shot? 🤔
- Can't scare me out of my vicious business practices with a threat of assassination if I hate myself so much I want to die 😎
- "bad shit' is relative. Who among us are without sin? I think conflating the CEO of a local retail business with CEO of a national company specializing in collecting medical debt is not healthy to increasing support for systemic change. Could the local ceo pay the cashier's more? probably.... But so could small business owners in general. Should we get mad at someone for choosing a repair person that charges less for a job? Why not pay someone else more for their labor? How much more? Pretty soon the finger pointing is so ubiquitous it's irrelevant.
- Guys I think he's bulletproof let's try shooting him

I certainly wouldn't feel safe working next to a CEO. Who knows when they'll snap and do something horrible?

I'll pick being alone in the woods with a bear
- What about alone in the woods with a CEO, with no witnesses around?

Did they take a screenshot of their own posts immediately after posting and then posted that image online?

Yes. They have a Facebook page and they post these screenshots to it. Lol I follow them.

  [inhales through teeth] aw well that's a shame

In an ideal world (therefore not ruled by humans) the word CEO would just mean that someone has to take care of the "big picture" duties and(/or?) owns the company. Yes, they would have more income than the average cannon fodder, but nothing crazy.

Being a CEO shouldn't mean anything bad on its own. Too bad we're just humans, therefore inherently greedy and selfish to various extents, and obviously the most scummy, selfish, greedy pricks just get selected into the role more often (or born into it). Just be aware that CEO ≠ evil automatically.

I think people are pretty clear that it's not the ceo part that makes people evil, it's just that the behavior it normally takes to get to that position within a big company is basically never rainbows and Mr Rogers.
That 'financial responsibility to maximize shareholder profit' isn't a joke and it often takes people with very little empathy to do it. With maybe some exceptions for some small companies or people who built the business from the ground up, i can't think of a single person in a CEO role, or aspiring to one, that would make anything close to a good 'friend', or even what most people would consider a good person.
- You can't be a CEO of lots of these companies and act ethically.
  Like: legally.
  They have a legal fiduciary duty to maximize profits for shareholders. That trumps everything else, including the lives of customers and employees.

They're only doing the bidding of the Shadow Council who will conjure a new one should the need arise.

Penis mightier than the sword for sure

...for four hundred Trebek!

The penis mightier

Let Elon Musk be the next

Thank god Trump is not a jealous nor envious type. Thank god the revenge seeking reprobate that got elected wouldn't be full of glee to see other rich people without SS protection feel scared.

Trump got liberals to hate on his enemies before he even took office again.

If billionaires are his enemies, he's been making some strange appointments

holy shit get this person a straight jacket asap. imagine living life thinking this all the time.

(they weren't with him)

As if the medical field / pharamaceuticals aren't doing it on their own. Denying can actually save lives.

Are you a literal fucking moron? Or just cosplaying as one?
- They're a troll. Just add a user note as "literal fucking moron" and any time you see them, let people know not to engage.
