        What’s that? You’re having an opinion on one of our flights?

        That’ll be a $34.99 aerial opinion fee; you can pay as you disembark the plane, or, in the future, if you anticipate having an opinion on one of our flights, you can save $5 by paying the fee from your home computer!

    CEOs have expense accounts that cover most of their stuff. Take calls and work remotely all the time. I guess we can’t remove their silliness can we?

    This puritanical work mentality is horrible. We’re supposed to live. Not just be profit generators for these miserable cunts.

    All the data collected has shown productivity went sharply UP with professionals working from home.

    These are desperate rich people with a stake in corporate real estate quickly becoming worthless.

      These folks know that the middle class has been bled dry, and soon, the billionaires won’t have anyone left to exploit except the millionaires like him

    Disregarding the bullshit he’s spewing: Why the fuck would I want to work hard for a boss like this overly entitled meatbag?

    Biffle blamed lower productivity for higher overhead costs for the airline, and said that it was a problem across companies.

    There’s the truth poking through. He’s looking for a scapegoat.
