In the middle of the table is a plate with a dozen cookies. The CEO takes 11 cookies, then turns to the Tea Partier and says: "Hey man, watch out for that union guy - he wants a piece of your cookie"

If only there were no sig limits (I think you or someone else posted the joke already, but it's funny enough that i forgive you )

The CEO got those cookies by navigating and leading his career to great heights and responsibility.
The tea partier got those cookies by keeping people or government from stealing them.
The union lazy fuckstain got his by forcing the other two to give up their "fair share" with intimidation, violence and brutality.

Or how about the cookies were put there by the CEO/business to be split based on work. Union want much more than the tea partier and refused to work until all the cookies were his. Tea Partier found simple solution - fire the union guy and there will be more for me and I'll come to work every day.

Union guy was fired, more cookies for all.

LMAO. Very few CEO's fit this description (maybe Steve Jobs). Most know how to play 'the game'.

Edit: Totally forgot the spidey thread where he says he only hires union workers, when he can... WHICH IS IT SPIDEY.

The game of promising the other CEOs on whose boards of directors he sits that they can be cookie hogs, too?

Useless "joke" unless you let us in on who provided the cookies.

Complete and utter bullshit.

Most CEOs are extremely hard working people who worked their asses off to get to the top. Most CEOs aren't billionaires. Most CEOs are held accountable for their actions and are paid based on their performance (both past and expected in the future).

A few CEOs at insanely large companies fit your description which is made even more evident by your "exception". It is like comparing all rich people to Paris Hilton so they must all be ditsy blonde sluts who have never worked a day in their life.

I've worked in enough large corps to know how much influence and value top officers have. The engineer that was laid off had more to do with our success than some fucking empty suit.

VERY few CEO's are the visionary type that have a lot to do with success, that's why i singled out steve jobs. You'll find those mainly in tech industries/startups. The guys who come AFTER the company has been built up from the ground up usually aren't shit.

Some factory worker in China.

Doesn't that imply that the union guy really is a complete freeloader in the joke along with the Tea Partier? Shouldn't they be happy to split the last cookie that neither of them earned?When a buddy offers me a single beer out of the 12 pack that he purchased I don't bitch that he gets 11, I thank him for giving me the 1.

Don't worry, the union member won't be a union member much longer after they move his job oversees. He'll be competing with several hundred million people for that one cookie.

How do you know they are empty suits? Most "top officers" that I know are extremely hard working and have more stress with their cherios in the morning then most other people do in a week. In the VAST majority of cases they didn't get there for nothing and companies generally don't like wasting money on positions they don't need.

I am not downplaying the work that the rest of the employees do by any means. It usually takes a lot of talented and devoted people to make a successful company but without good management you ain't got shit (same thing with good engineers, etc.)

Anecdotal evidence is anecdotal. His well reasoned and logical counter point still stands.

Because the overwhelming majority of them got to where they were via politics. I can respect someone who built something from the ground up, but everyone after is terrible, usually. Most execs tilt more towards Carly Fiorina who don't spend much time on the ground to really learn what's going on, rather than her HP predecessors who wanted to know what's going down in the trenches. I can see the value of the senior sales VP in my unit or financial directors, but the higher you go up, the less it is about work and more about networking. They put themselves up on a pedestal and don't look down.

Also, their contracts don't really look out for long term value because they have so much control over their own pay, thus you get bad incentives. Not as bad as what you see on wall street, but still bad. See: Interlocking directorates.
