I'd happily let you go. Who do you think you are?

  A person with self respect, I'd imagine. There is no need for this kind of condescending, threatening behavior amongst professionals.

    Although the CEO definitely did not need to act and word the encounter the way he did, I don't see this as a self respect issue. The employee failed to do something that the CEO trained him and required him to do for his job. The employee did not hold up his end of the deal, which means he was in the wrong, and at risk of getting fired. As you say, amongst professionals, one should do the things their boss asks.

    Right, this behavior is to be reserved for the lower-level employees. Executives should all be chummy together against the employees.

  That's astonishingly childish.

  Not a Marine at bootcamp, for one.
