At least nothing like this happens in the airline industry
Certainly not! Or other industries for that matter. It's a good thing executives everywhere aren't just concentrating on squeezing the maximum amount of money out of their companies and funneling it to themselves and their buddies on the board.
Sure, let's "rightsize" the company by firing 20% of our workforce (but not management!) and raise prices 30%, and demand that the remaining employees maintain productivity at the level it used to be before we fucked things up. Oh and no raises for the plebs, we can't afford it. Maybe a pizza party? One slice per employee though.
