Commuting by plane. Out with the guillotines, off with his head.
i doubt that there’s a bigger outward sign of a gap between the rich and the rest of us when you treat a jet like it’s a commuter car.
the icing on this cake is that he’s never fully aware of it and will be rewarded no matter what.
It’s sad to say, but there are people that work at Amazon (IC’s, not even senior or middle management) that commute by plane.
They were hired on the basis that being 100’s of miles away wasn’t a problem, and were then told to commute to their nearest office 3x a week (now 5x). For many, spending their money on a commute is preferable to being unemployed, so some employees spend 3+ hours a day commuting, or fly in and get a taxi/train to the office.
It’s obviously not to this level, but RTO initiatives make people do stupid shit in order to stay employed…
I hope the corporate jet is a Boeing.
Imagine having a job so fucking braindead easy you can live 1000 miles away and only show up three days out of the week.
CEO must be the fucking easier job over there, given that they are a lot of people that are CEO’s of multiple companies at the same time.
The only two requirements are being good at lying and believing your own bullshit.
Presumably this is more of a c/fuck_planes, because there’s no way he’s driving (19 hours nonstop) or taking a train (28–32 hours).
It says he’s taking the corporate jet and he has to be in Seattle at least 3 days a week
This fucking asshole
That’ll last 6 months and then he will quietly get an exemption to work from home
Tell me why i don’t like Starbucks…
First… Starbucks killed my beloved “Kaffehaus”-culture in vienna.
Now this.
I bought only one fucking coffee there in my whole live. It’s years ago. And it will be the only one in my live.
Oh… and Starbucks is master of tax avoidance
Had a VP who was forced to do this (but with commercial flights) 15ish years ago. It was hell and she quit after 4 months. Management was surprised due to their inability to understand people or reality.
Sounds like she made the mistake of trying to do her job herself rather than delegating all the work to her underlings like most execs do.
Nailed it. She was notorious for that.
someone do the math on his one-trip emissions and compare it to the average commute
He’ll superpollute
Might as well use Zoom instead
Niccol successfully negotiated a similar deal when he became the CEO of Chipotle in 2018.
At the time, the fast-casual chain was headquartered in Denver, Colorado … Chipotle moved its headquarters from Denver to Newport Beach three months after announcing Niccol’s appointment.
Checking out Newport Beach there’s a John Wayne Airstrip right there, 5 minute drive. Will probably fly out of that.
Because he’s a special boy
