Starbucks says incoming CEO Brian Niccol can live in his home in Newport Beach, California and commute to Starbucks’s head office in Seattle on a corporate jet.
Y’all would be surprised at how common this has become. I have worked for or with several startups and medium-sized businesses where the company was paying for flights from the other side of the country every week and a corporate apartment or hotel for executives to stay at before flying home for the weekend.
A friend of mine just got a secretary job for a smallish company and I was surprised to learn that they fly the entire office around on a private jet sometimes just for shits and giggles.
It is kind of infuriating knowing that people are giving up meat and riding their bike in the rain to reduce their carbon foot print while the capitalist class gives zero fucks about our planet because they think their bunkers will save them.
But the rich forgot who built their bunkers. When the shit hits the fan, those workers who built the bunkers won’t have any trouble pouring concrete over the air vents. We’re all in this together and either we all work together to beat climate change or no one will survive climate change.
Presumably this is more of a c/fuck_planes, because there’s no way he’s driving (19 hours nonstop) or taking a train (28–32 hours).
It says he’s taking the corporate jet and he has to be in Seattle at least 3 days a week
This fucking asshole
Of course not. They’ve chartered a private plane for him to fly to the office three times a week.

No money for salaries, the private jet lease and corporate penthouse really dig into our profits. Work harder and maybe we can afford a bigger jet!
