| Re: whatever said by RadioDoc  :Truthfully, nobody is that important. Says you. This statement continues to be rehashed every time someone brings up evil corporations and/or highly paid execs. Fact of the matter is that there are people worth that much money. What about consultants hired for a job? If I'm paying a consultant $10K for a day or two, he/she better damn well work during travel that I'm paying for. OTOH, a lot of people that "think" they are worth that much money in reality are not. | |

| Re: whatever I'm one of those consultants. You pay for my travel time at a lower rate, and I'll be taking a nap so I can devote 10-14 hours a day to you when I get there. Your time is while my feet are at your site.
Any work being done en route will be done for whomever I feel like doing it for.
I stand by my previous statements. Any competent business person knows how to avoid losing money while in transit.

| Re: whatever It's not totally about losing money. It's about efficiency and what a person's time is worth. People that are worth that much per hour have already tasked/delegated functions and responsibilities to subordinates and still have work (most likely even more important work) that needs to be done...in the office, in the car, on a plane, etc. Time is money. Any competent business person knows that  | |

Having your workday dictated by an airline (the 'if I can't work/chat on my cellphone/surf the Internet/snore/fart I lose thousands of dollars' crowd) is indicative of someone who is not in control of their life.

| Re: whatever said by RadioDoc :indicative of someone who is not in control of their life. I'll agree with that. I think we're saying the same thing, just in a different manner. | |
