Heh, this reminded me of my previous company, where the CEO hosted a Christmas party at her house where only the development team was invited. The next day, the rest of the company was served the left-overs, instead of the regular catering.
It was definitely an eye-opening moment for everyone in terms of realizing which department was the CEO's favorite.
Well, the CEO herself came from a computer science background, and was of the mindset that the product was so good it sold itself. She constantly complained that the sales team might as well be digging ditches in the desert. Didn't have the guts to test that theory, though.
