The real question is that if the CEO somehow knew for certain that cutting the soda would allow him to earn that 21,800,000 but keeping the soda would boost productivity earning him 22,500,000 instead, would he cut it anyway because that's just the way things should be done?
- lifeformed 11y agoI bet the soda cut was more about keeping up the appearance of doing something. His compensation is probably more directly affected by his perceived effectiveness than from the subtle productivity benefits more soda would bring.
- tbrake 11y agoRight! It's low impact, high visibility. And the last line of the old post - "we _even cut out_ the sodas" - is a great soundbite. To borrow from the common criticism of the TSA - it's cost cutting theatre.
