Oh, Bobby. I actually worked for this guy once, long ago. (The company was International Consumer Technologies and the product was DeluxeWrite. Not mentioned in the Wikipedia page, but AFAICT it would have been between Arktronics and Leisure Concepts.) Even then, by the standards of that time, he - and even more so his partner-in-crime Howard - had notably little regard for work/life balance or other aspects of employee well-being.
I happened to be near that building in Ann Arbor recently. Even though it was an important stepping stone in my career, without which I wouldn't be where I am now, I was still tempted to raise one finger in salute. BK seems to have a knack for impressing money types and mistreating just about everyone else, which IMO says a lot about both him and the money types.
