re: #32 EmmmieG

In 2008, we had to take a 5% pay cut. The entire company did.

Except for the CEO and founder.

He took his salary down to $1.

It was…comforting. It made it easier to take. It showed he got it.

Was he still getting massive bonuses or other pay outs, though? Hate to be so skeptical, but I know that sort of thing is often used mostly for optics, rather than actually being a sacrifice.
