    What prevents anybody from calling? Or any self employed from giving themselves the title of CEO? Are they going to reject CFOs and other Cs?

    Why do I think this will end up being “hotline for rich bastards”?

    Someone should hack it so it just redirects to Kitboga’s scammer-trapping labyrinth.

    Or better yet, it detects which CEO is calling, and it just dumps the bastards into their own company’s AI-hell phone tree.

    I prefer my punishments to be ironic.

    There’s a good chance that if this gets enough push back they’ll just implement it quietly and call it something else. Nobody will even know.

    if ceo assassinations were a tenth as common as school shootings, the usa would have the toughest gun control laws in the world.

          Lmao, theres actually a term for this

          The “White Paper Protest”

          Protestors would just show up with sign that is blank, because it would be illegal to actually write the words, and everyone already know what you meant. Funny thing is that blank sign itself also became illegal. Seems like the US could be heading that way under Project 2025.

          Remember folks, there’s only way out of this, it’s to [Redacted by lemmy.world admins]!

            Thanks for reminding me it’s time to move to another instance.

            My last straw was when one of the mods sent out a mass message (prior to the recent events in the news) that [Redacted by lemmy.world admins]

    Ironically, if you really wanted to make healthcare CEOs safer, you’d set up a hotline for people who have been denied medical coverage.

    Hope leads to peace, despair leads to bullets.

      I mean, it’s not hard to become a CEO. It’s not expensive to register an LLC. And you can give yourself whatever stupid title you want.

      And, whose to say I, a newly minted CEO, don’t feel in fear for my life due to my health insurance company? Make yourself a CEO, and any time they deny a claim, call in to report your health insurance company for threatening your life.

    Man i would love to read a transcription of that call hahaha!

    "I walked into my private bathroom during the 15 minute “return to office pizza party and some animal had written DDD on the wall! I pay good money for this service, want a police escort for my coffee run!”

    -Seeo the Clown

    I hope being a CEO becomes the most dangerous job in the country making the job untenable until they all get replaced with wallstreetbets AI algo.

    “No matter how angry we are, you cannot take a weapon, a ghost gun, put a silencer on and target someone and shoot them. That’s the bottom line,” said Adams

    Totally calling that line (from a Google voice number obtained on a VM) to chat with the underpaid folks about the inanity of their job but how they should take that paycheck and also demand more because the lines are flooded.
