Elmo has been notorious for sleeping under a desk at the Tesla plant where all the workers on shift change had to walk by and see him. Martyr-showboating is his schtick.
Who's a better CEO, one who works 18 hours a day and sleeps at the office? Or one who delegates effectively, and listens to the experts he pays? It's one thing to get down in the trenches in an emergency. Better management prevents such emergencies.
@sean Yep. You always notice the people who think draping a jacket over the back of their chair at all hours and scheming a lot makes up for poor work and poor attitude.
Nice thing about WFH is these people no longer have anywhere to hide. They now get judged based solely on their work. Maybe that’s why Elno hates it so much.
@jonconnorton He just gave workers an ultimatum to either commit to an open-ended "hard-core" schedule at Twitter, or quit with 3 months severance.
It's a generous severance package, and if I were any of those people, I'd take it immediately.
Because the alternative is a form of modern-day slavery. What good's a salary if you don't have time to spend it? You're paying for a home you never get to use, etc.
@sean It screws over workers on visas who can’t go and work for another company. They have no choice except to go back to where they came from.
But yeah, it’s absolutely stupid. It’s almost like the behaviour of a cult. And to innovate quicker, Elno needs to understand decision loops and not try and make others pay for his fuck-ups.
This all makes me quite cross, actually.
I would pop paper bags a lot
