Current Affairs Elon Musk

Not sure how this doesn’t violate California WARN laws

Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN)

California employers can find an overview of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act including, how to file a WARN Notice and what steps are taken after a WARN notice has been filed.

edd.ca.gov

WARN protects employees, their families, and communities by requiring employers to give a 60-day notice to the affected employees and both state and local representatives before a plant closing or mass layoff. Advance notice provides employees and their families time to transition and adjust to the potential loss of employment, time to seek alternative jobs and, if necessary, time to obtain skills training or retraining to successfully compete in the job market.

Screwed up, there’s got to be a lot of staff kept on who might just quietly start making life difficult for Musk. ’You’re all fired, oh and you lot, your hours just doubled and no more remote work because you can’t be remote while coding! ‘

This lawyer agrees with you. Seems pretty unambiguous. I wonder if he's simply decided the consequences are worth it?

I've a feeling Twitter did something to Musk a long time a go.. Did they ban him or block him or something for a period and he is now getting his revenge?

Twitter will be dead within months.

Hopefully.

Sacking staff by email and locking them out of their offices, slum landlord stuff. The musk fan boys will still justify it.

Tech workers badly need to unionise.

Obviously he should follow correct protocol and be sued if he doesn't but the simple fact is that Twitter struggled to make a profit in all its time and Musk is an uber-capitalist who has just made a hell of an investment and wishes to take them in a new direction. It was inevitable.

Maybe he should be treated as such and not as if he's a starting quarterback at needs favourite team. Fellas a rat

 

[Walken]

Musk is a nasty piece of work

Megalomaniac.

Musk is a nasty piece of work

He’s an absolute pig. The sooner society wakes up and collectively realises these billionaires with obscene personal wealth are parasites, and take everything from the rats the better.

Take a look at the replies from musk sycophants and right wingers celebrating employees being treated this way, repulsive

They’re all disgusting. I can barely put into words (without an immediate ban) just how much I despise right wing shills and billionaire bootlickers

So, take it over, get in fights with celebrities and anonymous cats, sack half his staff illegally, take away the safeguards against hate speech?
seems more like a crazy ego trip than inevitable business plan.
And $2.40 of every $8 sub made on an iPhone goes to apple, every month!
