If they go public, he can get demoted from the CEO position after some Elon-Musk-like-stunt and go on the bench, still keeping enough stocks to be part of the board.
Otherwise I don't see how you fire yourself... The past is a rudder to guide us, not an anchor to hold us back. |

Rob is the owner and creator of Realm Works. We're a small company, it would be very difficult to survive without him.

Chemlak's list was good, but EightBitz topped it with one. LOL
Hang in there Rob. It will seem like a lifetime, but you will eventually get your health back. Avi, how is an employee's health issue handled in your country? I know most developed countries are far more advanced in most areas like health care, education, employee rights than the US. |

Although I don't know which country Avi is from, I'll tell you about Portugal.
Overall, you can't be fired - you'll go on a medical leave of absence and you receive about half your paycheck (this can be more depending on circumstances). In certain cases you also get free medical treatment (although you pay for bought medication at a reduced price, you don't pay for anything else, medication or other service, provided by doctors in public hospitals). Your case needs to be regularly assessed to see if you are fit to return to work - then your company has to accept you back and, if needed, find ways to help you do your work in case of some remaining disabilities. It's not perfect though, a few years back a primary school teacher undergoing chemo was deemed fit for work although she had throat cancer - there was a lot of backlash but it still took months before anything was done about it. |

Thank you, Teresa. I always like to learn how things are done in other countries. A person can learn a lot by looking at other systems of anything and see what works and what doesn't. I just wish the US wasn't so full of itself and would look at and learn how other countries do things. Btw, the US is my country and I do vote so I can complain about its many fails. LOL |
