Ahh yes. I switched companies because some new sales guy I discovered was getting paid more than me after I was there 9 years.
I mean, I completely understand them. You just build the products. Running and building them doesn't bring in money - that costs money! You know what brings in money? Sales. That's why they deserve such huge amounts of money, because they're bringing in money!
