It Pays To Be Bankrupt !!! fucking crazy!
 
PG&E's top brass gave themselves $83 million in bonuses earlier this year for doing such a good job during the utility's bankruptcy proceedings.

This month, they handed out an additional $89 million in bonus money for, well, doing such a good job during the utility's bankruptcy proceedings.



Quote:

The millions given to 17 senior managers in January were retention bonuses to reward them for doing their jobs even though times were tough.

The millions given on July 9 to the same 17 execs -- as well as, on a much smaller scale, to about 6,500 other managers and nonunion employees -- were performance bonuses to reward them for doing their jobs so well.

Proof that you don't have to be smart or work hard to become rich. Opportunistic and underhanded....yes. But they'll tell you and themselves that they are worth every penny and deserve it.
