!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

You may want to take the same advice. 'Usually full of C-Suite douchebags' shows how out of touch you are with reality. The majority of companies in the US don't even have a C-Suite and are mom and pop shops. Even those that do have a proper corporate structure, you can remove every ounce of salary and benefits from the C-Suite and still wouldn't lower prices significantly.
Management makes bad decisions? So do workers. Everyone does, that's humans, no one is perfect. Do workers more often get kicked to the curb over management? Sure, that's reality. If you move yourself into management, and workers make errors that cost the company, who do you get rid of?
Perhaps it's a giant combination of factors and not just some sucker with 'C' in their title.
at least get their cock out of your mouth while youre talking to me jeez
Leadership makes the decisions and gets to keep the profits, so they should be held to a higher standard of accountability. Small businesses that don't literally have "CEOs" still have leaders. These people took responsibility, and should be treated like it.
If you're a ship captain, and your sailors make errors that cause the ship to sink, you're still ultimately responsible because it's your ship, and who hired those sailors?
Ahh, so realistically you want one person to take blame, but not have the reward. Makes sense.
Close a company because you have to keep everyone regardless, or get rid of people to ensure those who are left stay employed. The realistic decision made every day. When a government decision raises your costs overnight by 50% and customers don't pay for it, tell us, who is at fault? Guess it's the manager because they didn't anticipate that right?
