Bet you they fly on Gulfstreams.  Their planes are for mass transit.  There aren’t enough execs to fill the planes they build.

Nay

Well, I’m also in favor of regulating executive pay, but it’s a fact that, while execs are WAY overpaid, their pay isn’t a huge (or even large) item on the overall balance sheet.

This is a good point. I’m curious what the numbers are if you add a “have you ever seen one, yes/no” question and look at those two populations individually.

Came here to say some version of the same thing haha

Turnover in the trucking industry is much, much higher than that. Which really only furthers your argument, haha

Technically, I think Fisker has accountants. What they don’t have are qualified accountants.

Boeing’s negligence and *outright deception* of regulators (737-MAX) killed innocent people. Hundreds of them. And they clearly learned, not to correct these problems, but to double down on cost cutting.

The problem is these Boeing execs almost certainly fly on private planes.  Make ‘em fly in their own jets and see how fast these issues get fixed.

Make sure to slap the executives who allowed all this bullshit with handcuffs and you’ve got yourself a deal.

One man's trash...

Same. But part of the reason we’ve learned to fix chains and derailleurs so we’ll is... Because they break easily.

delayed the release of its full financial results for last year, because it lacked a sufficient number of experienced accounting professionals

If I learned anything from Vine (which I never used), the kids  will find a new platform and everything will be pretty much exactly the same, only with an inexplicably-dumber name.

Any time someone who’s had an accident says they “had two beers” they definitely had at least eight beers.

Man, those Prohibition-era bootleggers really should have tried this one out.

Once we’re all scared to fly on their planes and the commercial airline industry is a desiccated husk, I guess the private equity jet-set bros get will have into the “private” plane industry.

I’m not ready to outlaw buybacks carte blanche, but I am ready to give the SEC one of those huge novelty magnifying glasses to look over any and all buyback plans with.

It’s like they always say...
