I would like to think that these people accepted their executive positions not based on their remuneration, but because they felt they'd be up to the task. And this is where the people kind of lose faith in the entire thing, because they feel that the people making big bucks aren't doing a good job.
I think you just made his point for him. The average radio-call-in-show whiner has no idea what work these people are actually doing behind the scenes, what their job actually entails, what hours they are or aren't actually putting in - they just assume that running a massive region-wide transit system is no more complex than running a household and thereby assume that they couldn't possibly be doing anything that's worth anywhere near what they get paid.
