This is why golden parachutes were invented. They can really foul up and they alone can walk away with more money than they will ever spend. The Workers who get laid off will go home and blame it all on people who dont look or sound just like them……and refugees………
This is so unrealistic. A true executive would find a way to spin the situation into a way to get a bigger bonus. I remember when Raytheon Aircraft was in receivership, workers were laid off and the labor contracts were renegotiated but the executives still got their bonuses. The argument was that they couldn’t afford to have anybody from the management team quit.
A ‘yes man’? Why? That poor guy that is out there seems to have an answer. Like the chart, something else could fall. Then what is the callus lady demanding? "creative accounting’ reads: theft.What are those pictures we see? Blank with black borders, strange….
Bruno ZeigertsUpside down would still look high on the left and low on the right, and 90° rotation would have the wrong (portrait, not landscape) proportions. He is facing a doom of his own making. It makes no sense. He will get his pension, parachute, and a high position at another corporation to destroy (or maybe run for president after four bankruptcies).
This reminds me of the SNL skit about the interviewer asking one of today’s youth raised on praise that was undeserved what would happen if they were told the truth of their capabilities.
No! Let him jump! The doctrine of Corporate Darwinism demands that the weak be terminated (without pension or benefits as per company policy) in favor of the strong! (/snarkasm)

Just tell him the financials are off the chart, which they are, just the wrong direction.

Smoke some of that plant, and call in a Finance Major (a.k.a. minimum wage dweeb who enjoys being whipped).

Did you hear about the bookkeeper who committed suicide by jumping off a ledger?- there’s no accounting for taste

Unfortunately, even if she saves the company and the CEO, it will not help the actual bottom line at all.
