In the same week that Prince Alwaleed complained to Forbes about not being high enough up its list of billionaires, a different sort of complaint was being made in an industrial tribunal in east London. Stella English, a former winner of Lord Sugar’s The Apprentice show, claimed that the £100,000 job she had won as a prize had been previously done by someone on a salary of a mere £35,000, making her feel an “overpaid lackey”.
就在沙特王子阿尔瓦利德•本•塔拉尔(Prince Alwaleed bin Talal)因为自身在富豪榜上的排名不够靠前而向《福布斯》(Forbes)杂志提出抗议的当周,伦敦东部的一个行业特别审理委员会受理了一起截然不同的抗议。斯特拉•英格利希(Stella English)是舒格勋爵(Lord Sugar)真人秀节目《学徒》(The Apprentice)的前任获胜者。她声称自己所赢得的年薪10万英镑的工作机会,此前是由一个年薪仅3.5万英镑的人完成的,这让她感到自己像是一个“光拿钱不干事的马屁精”。
