As the CEO (on paper) of a company, who also takes a $1 salary. Yeah. I don't do shit. The employees do everything.

edit: People downvoting because they think CEOs should be paid their stupid money - fuck off. Money should go to those doing the labor. Executive salaries create poverty wages, lowering executive salaries and paying those doing legitimate work means better wages.

    You literally are not doing any labor, and are not getting paid. Is that supposed to be a gotcha?

    No...it was agreeing to the fact that CEOs shouldn't be paid ridiculous amounts. Since I don't do the labor, I don't take pay, and that's how it should be.

    I fail to see how that is a gotcha? Do people here actually think CEOs should be paid for that? If so, I maintain my stance, they shouldn't.
