When was the last time you negotiated a contract after it was already signed by all parties?

- rhaway84773 4y agoThe last time was the last time Elon tried it. The thing I really hate about the Elon Twitter purchase saga is that now you have an army of Elonauts who believe that breaking contracts is just normal contract negotiations. I’m dreading facing one of these people off in court one of these days. Eventually they will have to pay up, and more, but it’s just an awful waste of time and energy for everybody.
- zimpenfish 4y ago> now you have an army of Elonauts who believe that breaking contracts is just normal contract negotiations To be fair, I'd say Trump perfected that business plan but Trumponauts are much less terminally online than the Elonauts (although I suspect the overlap is high.)
- rhaway84773 4y agoI was being entirely selfish. I’m unlikely to ever do business with a Trumpnaut being in the tech industry. I’ve already worked with some Elon fans before, and it’s likely I will work with more going forward. The problem with a lot of these people is that they follow the worst, most superficial aspects of their idols. It’s like when all the Jobs followers decided being a good CEO meant wearing jeans and a black turtleneck and and being assholes to everyone around you. I’m 100% sure the majority of the Elon followers won’t bother with his work ethic, which is admirable, and instead focus on his douchebaggery and petty criminality instead.
