    is that one of those ‘too big to fail’ companies, or one of the ‘too large to succeed’ companies?

    I have an open door policy. Of course, the bookcase has wheels.

    LBJ had his desks /chairs towering over whomever was on the other side.

    Back when I was working as an engineer, I managed to salvage a desk like that from the executives’ junk pile. It pretty much filled my cubicle, but it was sure impressive…

    You’re right on, Potrzebie. LBJ had a chair in the Air Force One conference room that had hydraulic lifts on it so he could look down on others. When he left office he orderdered it to be removed and and sent to his home. He also earned the nick name “cotton mouth”.

    The desk is sitting on a massive billion dollar bill. There is a hinge on the top so when you lift it up, hidden there is his executive pay he doesn’t report to the IRS.

    The desk is HUGE. How can it go through the door? I think it will not be able to go through the door.

    Wildmustang,, Things like that desk go through the window. I reminds me of the excesses by the military in the 80’s such as the $500 hammers. An Admiral threw out the desk given for him to use and bought one for in excess of $2,000,000.

    Maybe that’s it?

    @ baslimthebegger,

    That desk is certainly big enough to contain a bed.

    If you look carefully, you’ll see an F/A-18 coming in for a landing…

    What the comic doesn’t show is the five layers of receptionists, assistants, and administrative professionals he had to get past to get a meeting.
