Microsoft paid its chief executive Steve Ballmer 5.5% less for the last fiscal year as the world's biggest software company suffered its first ever drop in annual sales.


He's now on less bananas than ever before ;)

He can afford to work for nothing. A 5% drop is unlikely to affect his stock holdings, off shore bank accounts etc.. I feel no pity for him whatsoever.

I expect he could easily afford to work for the next financial year for nada.

Hmm. They could pay me the 5% he's lost, and I'm be very, very thankful for it.

What they don't say is how much of his wages he's had to pay back for chair repairs.
