"Not surprised actually"

That's what makes this worse...we just expect it now and roll over.

"Aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the theatre?"

In their defense, who DOESN'T want a gigantic bonus?

i'm liking this, let me try one

Aside from breaking your spine in three places Mr. Grylls, are you feeling up for some tennis today old chap?

The family of 5 I killed last year with my vehicle nonwithstanding, you'll see that for every other day of last year I killed no one. So I believe I am entitled to heavily discounted insurance rates, my license back, and to be let out of prison for my high commitment to road safety. I would also like to resume my job as a school bus driver.

Just doesn't have the same kind of "Well I don't see what could go wrong!" ring to it for most people when you apply it to an individual citizen instead of a corporate citizen.

So ridiculous.

Also, take this incident completely out of it and look at from this standpoint. Why the hell should a bunch of executives get huge bonuses for a company's safety record in the first place? If corporate culture made any sense the people who are working dangerous jobs every day should be the ones receiving 'safety bonuses' if a company has a good year. Not a bunch of executives.
