11:19 PM: Today, we were all looking at some of the documents our corporate overlords had to make public as part of their grand plan to take over the world. The CEO has over 1 million vested shares. Not options, not a hundred thousand, not five hundred thousand. Something like 1.5 mil. The value of the stock could drop in half tomorrow and this guy would still be a gigantic millionaire.
It roughly works out to his being worth 840 times what I am, in a best case scenario for me. Is he really 840 times better than me? At what? I mean, think about that - it means that there is something he can do that 800 people like me working together couldn't do. Well sure, a lot of things spring to mind, like "Be as incredible an arrogant sales dink". It just appalls me that such traits could be so valuable.
But of course, they're not. There is no value in America. Only price.
Must become Irish. Must forge passport.
Willfully blind self-indulgent nebbish or amusingly quirky old coot? And how bout that local sports team? Discuss among yourselves.

unreliable but it's all in good fun. Yep.
