CEOs have a lot of unpleasant tasks, like job slashing, pleading the fifth and pursuit of world domination. And that can sometimes have them looking like the bad guy.
Well, maybe leave world domination to their counterparts in the movies and TV. As it turns out, an awful lot of chief executives have an uncanny resemblance to the villains who've made treachery, despotism and plain meanness their business. Of course, we're not saying all CEOs are evil. They just look like it sometimes.
