6 Degrees of Management Compensation

[Connected1]

You've all heard of the "6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game...any actor can be linked through his or her film roles to actor Kevin Bacon within six steps. The same can be said of the management compensation topic on this board. Regardless of the thread topic, it can (or sometimes, it seems, *must*) be linked back to management compensation in less than 6 posts.

So rather than continue this mind-numbing pattern of turning every thread into a management compensation debate, here's a thread that can serve as a holding tank for the management compensation issue. Think a new event/thread has a management compensation angle? Discuss it here. Let the other threads remain on topic.
