Steve Easterbrook, the now-former McDonald’s CEO, was raking in a salary of $15.9 million dollars a year. All he had to do was keep his nose to the grindstone and not violate any company policies. Unfortunately for Easterbrook, he violated one major policy, that of having a relationship with a fellow coworker.

The relationship was consensual, and that’s all we know as McDonald’s declined to provide any more details on Easterbrook and the anonymous staffer that he nibbled on like a nugget.
