    CEOs probably felt useless during COVID and realized the company doesn’t need them, so they want to exercise their power to necessitate their position.

    Sort of like how some celebrities couldn’t cope with COVID because everybody was doing their own thing and paparazzi couldn’t report on them as much.

      Probably more that they’ve always been keenly aware how they’re just vampires sitting on the labor of everyone below them, and COVID scared the bejeesus out of them, because suddenly other people could see that, too. It did more to show lowly workers this was always the case than it spurred any self-reflection in CEOs.

      COVID showed the Emperor had no clothes, and this is simply the Emperor scrambling to find anything to cover up with.

      Man, being a celebrity in Hollywood took a HUGE hit in Covid… they are borderline irrelevant at best and thought of as unintelligent, entitled clowns at worst.
