it reminds how about 20 years ago at Sun Microsystems they laid off several hundreds in one org with intention to rehire back pick-and-choosing ~100 best. Fail. Pretty much everybody took the package and went onto better pastures, especially the best ones.
- TomK32 2y agoYeah, humans are funny with their feelings and such. Maybe Musk is an autist afterall and not a sociopath.
- blooalien 2y ago> "Maybe Musk is an autist afterall and not a sociopath." Maybe he's a little of both. I doubt they're mutually exclusive. One can be both of those things I believe, yes?
- me_me_me 2y agoI am so happy it was a drink driver that hit me, I was afraid they did this on purpose. Why does it matter what musk is, when he is actively trying to make your life worse. No matter the motives.
- johnnyanmac 2y agoehh, if it was an accident it was bad luck I was there. If it was on purpose I got a lotta stuff to prepare to get that guy away from me. But this metaphor isn't really aligning with Musk anymore.
- alphager 2y agoWe autistic people have feelings and empathy. We have trouble expressing feelings and reading feelings of others, but we know that we and other people have feelings. Musk may or may not be an autist, but his deranged treatment of people is not because of autism.
- ben_w 2y agoSimilar story is how my dad got early retirement. Offered to everyone, management very upset that he, with a decade or so of experience on that specific project, actually took it.
- m463 2y agoOn the other hand, maybe management knew the value perfectly well but were powerless and the hiring/firing/etc came from "above".
