Valve boss Gabe Newell spends his days scuba diving and hanging out on a boat alongside his work, but is effectively retired at this point.

      Having known a number of CEOs over the years, they arent the ones waking up for those 3am calls unless it’s a business shattering literally apocalyptic event.

      They honestly shouldn’t be the ones taking emergency calls either since most of the time they’ll be in the way.

        Gabe Newell is not a usual CEO though.

          There’s no reason to idolize the man.

          He’s definitely also not a “fixes the bug himself” CEO.

          We can pretend he’s different. I can freely admit that I like to think he’s different. But no way in hell is he fixing any kind of problem, that arises in the middle of the night, himself.

      There are plenty of non CEO jobs with similar requirements

          Those don’t pay remotely as much.
