Who has two C-Suite jobs? The people at that level are frequently the ones working the longest hours.

Elon Musk has 3 (SpaceX, Tesla, the Boring Company).

Jack Dorsey has 2 (Square, Twitter).

Steve Jobs was CEO of both Apple and Pixar.

So the three celebrity status CEOs out of a C-Suite population in what... the high five figures?

At least 2, at my unnamed company. Three mentioned celebrities who are easily verified. And you're still incredulous. I don't know what to tell you, this isn't that uncommon.

It's not that they don't work too much for their own good, and pay themselves as much as they can get away with. It's that they don't see the need to show up at my company every day, but somehow think that highly creative employees perform better at a grindstone.

I'd sure hope so, since they're getting paid hundreds of times more.
