I'm told Twitter employees were just walked out of its Singapore office — its Asia-Pacific headquarters — over nonpayment of rent. Landlords walked employees out of the building

@caseynewton the only reason this "news" seems unlikely is the fact the timings don't seem correct... You posted at 6.30am here in Singapore... No office landlords work at that time. Had this been posted about 80 minutes later, I wouldn't even doubt this story...

Additionally, no news in the local media about this - and usually these sorts of news items appear here within minutes...

May I ask what source do you have for this?

I'm v happy to be proven wrong, I'm just curious.

@yuvrajhanspal We may be getting tripped up by the time zone. My understanding, per posts on Twitter Blind, is that employees were escorted out at 5P local time Wednesday

@caseynewton gotcha. Thanks for clarifying that. :) I was curious and a bit sceptic, seeing it still hasn't been reported by the media here. And it's 5pm now.
