Five Guys’ chief executive officer, Jerry Murrell, said he gave a $1.5m bonus to employees of his US-based burger restaurant chain because “I didn’t want anybody shooting me”

We need more CEOs to be as scared as this guy

@yassie_j apparently that checks out as $1000 in bonuses per shop?

@nina_kali_nina @yassie_j

So it's $200 per guy, not great, not terrible

@nina_kali_nina oh. read it as $1.5m per person
@yassie_j
@creatures @yassie_j if every of 5000+ employees got a $1.5m bonus, that'd be ~$7.5bn in bonuses (3x annual revenue of the chain or 18x net worth of the CEO). Food chains are not making as much money as the big tech does. Still, $400m net worth of the CEO is... something.
@nina_kali_nina if the ceo is "worth" $400m, shouldnt he give like atleast $300m to avoid getting shot?
