Do you think it's inappropriate for Execs to drive their Ferarris and Lamborgini's to work?

Take it other places - NOT to work.

If the CEO's employee's don't like what kind of car he drives, he can always see how much they like a line at the unemployment office.

lol, he's right - if you maintain that attitude, you'll never be a successful manager of people.
 
they can do whatever they want. Nevertheless, i have heard stories of nice cars like that getting ruined when someone is fired...therefore, i don't know that i would drive more than a 100k car to work 😛 depends what i make i guess
 
what do you expect them to drive then, a Kia?
more motivation for everyone to work their way up

Agreed, I couldn't handle driving such a nice car I'd have to hire a guard for it so I could park it in regular places.
 
with their multi-million dollar bonus paychecks every year, execs can afford lambos and ferraris like you and i buy a 2GB SD memory stick.
 
how many execs do you know that drive that expensive of a car into work?

when i was at Microsoft the best i saw was a nice jaguar, here at amazon a Porsche, most of the execs drive regular cars, definitely nothing over 60k-70k.

Yes, once as a teenager I drove my friend (a girl, but not a girlfriend) to the mall in the winter. I could not find a space near an entrance so we had to walk a ways. It was a clear day, but chilly out and I was coming down with a cold so I took a handful of Kleenex with me. When we were done I was down to my last tissue. As we stepped out of the mall the cold air hit my nose and really started up the snot factory. I blew and really loaded up that tissue, but there was no trash can near and I was not about to put that in my pocket.

So what should my eyes behold in front of me in the first row taking up not one but TWO parking spaces? A Porsche 911 convertible with the top down. My friend said "Gee if they didn't take up two spaces maybe we could have parked closer." I agreed. My snot loaded tissue left a glob as it bounced off their steering wheel and stuck to the leather in the middle of the driver?s seat.

Cliffs:
People who flaunt their expensive cars in front of the working man piss me off.
If you drive one don't take two parking spaces in front of the mall.
 
As a college student, I'd say it's equivalent to feeling inappropriate for the teacher to come in driving a BMW. It's just no big deal at all. It's a car, a car they could afford, a car that's made to bring them wherever.

That is COMPLETELY different!! A teacher does not take away from a students grades to pay for his expensive car. The exec can afford that car because his workers don't make enough to fill the gas tank of their ten year old POS Dodges with failing a/c.

Hell yes I would drive it to work. And I would hire Bikini-clad women to wash it every day, might as well give the workers a good show.
