To be fair, the 9-5 workers are paid for their hours, the multiple board positioned folks are often paid in equity, sometimes nothing, and have minimal 9-5 obligations. In having fewer 9-5 obligations, often none, it’s less immoral to have multiple board positions. Fwiw, I’m not on a board, just writing it how I see it.


> 9-5 workers are paid for their hours

9-5 workers (in tech atleast) are rarely paid hourly - neither individuals nor managers.

> it’s less immoral to have multiple board positions

I would disagree - I find it immoral that you can be part of multiple decision-making boards, each earning multiples of a yearly wage, and somehow have so little work to do compared to a worker.
