I need to be a CEO one day. Then I too can lie about my resume and still jump from one million-dollar paycheck to the next. Ain't life grand.

Seriously. If they're this lenient about lower-level positions, I'll send them a resume to die for.

Gosh, wish I can lie on my resume (when I was starting out my career) to get my foot in the door and get some experience at Paypal. Then one day, I too, can be CEO of another company.

Anyway, how can anyone work for a company that is run by a CEO who has a history of lying? Imagine you with a BS, MS, PhD in computer science, engineering, business, etc. and your superior is an idiot who Bull$hit his resume and yet he's the CEO.

Best part is the official reason he "stepped down" from his most-recent CEO positions was health-issues surrounding possible thyroid problems (cancer). Yet lo and behold, here he is, as the CEO of another company, despite his health-issues. :rollseyes:

Resume-fluff aside, I do hope he helps expand the vendor list. Right now, Newegg's the only thing I use it for.

Well, he may have lied on his resume but it seems he is a quite capable man, for leading PayPal to a global presence. Good luck to him.

And even if the company needs bailout, you can still get bonuses. If it files for bankruptcy, then you get a nice fat severance package.
