When I worked at BlackBerry, it pissed me off when CEO John Chen sent out an email telling employees that they need to be fully focused on their BlackBerry job. Meanwhile, he was on the board of directors of Disney and Wells Fargo while BlackBerry was failing badly.
Rich people sitting on multiple boards and running multiple companies is A-OK
Poor people having to work 3 jobs to keep food on the table is A-OK
But, middle class office workers working at multiple jobs is fraud and abuse and must be stopped.
