My old boss was like that. On the one hand, not remotely questioning wealthy clients on crazy salary + crazier bonuses, but yet couldn't understand how one of the young tech guys from a startup sharing our office wouldn't work on the weekend to do our website for a couple of hundred quid. I tried to explain supply, demand and market rates, but to him it was £x so surely he'd want it.
Yeah. That too.
