Air Traffic Control gave clearance to the fire truck to cross the runway while the Air Canada plane was landing. After realizing their mistake ATC tried to stop the truck but it was too late. Both pilots died and 41 people were transported to local hospitals including passengers, crew, and fire fighters.

I was being sarcastic by the way.

Anyone with a shred of humility and critical thinking skills should realize that cutting corners to chase short term profit is being "penny wise, pound foolish".

For the well-connected, that doesn't seem to be necessary to fail upwards into leadership positions, unfortunately. Even ignoring the glaring orange example, there are people like John Riccitiello who managed to skull-fuck the reputations of both EA and Unity and still walk away with a new job lined up.
