Yeah, the first point is utter nonsense. Executive management is a very different kind of job than hourly work, but is still difficult and taxing, just in different ways. Every CEO I've worked with is on the clock almost literally 24x7. I'm not supportive of that lifestyle, but saying it's not hard work is very ignorant.
I'd give the second one 50/50 depending on which CEO and employee we're comparing. The third point is absolutely true. I've never met an executive that's legitimately earned their pay.
Ceo seems lik a horribly stressfull job, and they got investors beathing down their neck, ready to replace them if their growth plan dont pan out. They do got sweet pay though.
