No, it doesn't work that way. CEOs/VPs never had house chores as major time sink. When you are at that level, you are responsible for 1000+ employees, 100s of teams and dozens of projects. Each project and team requires at least quarterly review, funding, strategy, motivation, vision, market analysis, HR, budgeting, PR, partners and so on. A typical CEO/VP works well over 12 hours, often at least 14 hours and many work one weekend days. Their calendars are filled with meetings down the hierarchy and up the management chain and across external people - usually starting at 8 AM and going down all the way to 8 PM. They have to also keep meeting customers, major shareholders, partners and so on in addition to internal people. Its extremely hard to find time for them because everything is important and not doing something can eventually lead to big disaster and loss of millions of dollars. Most developers think these people are lazy and play golf all day long while their underlings do all the work. If you look at their schedules, you had be quite wrong. Zuck is able to make time for all these is extremely amazing and should get respect from anyone for his discipline. I can't recall any other CEO leading same size of company being able to do this level of hands on hacking in past or present.
