I just realised from whom Elon Musk learned all his management skills...


(For those outside of the age range to know - Cosmo G Spacely, CEO of Spacely's Space Sprockets and boss of George Jetson.  Catchphrase:  "Jetson!  You're Fired!")

I mean, honestly, Elon's going to be catching that rocket to Mars alone:

Elon Musk has told staff they must commit to a new “hardcore” Twitter or he will fire them, according to reports.

Staff received an email at midnight local pacific time telling them that the company will become “extremely hardcore” in the future.

“This will mean working long hours at high intensity,” he said, according to a number of reports. “Only exceptional performance will constitute a passing grade.”

Staff were forced to click “yes” on a link to pledge themselves to the “new Twitter”, with a commitment required by Thursday. If they do not sign that pledge, they will be fired with three months pay, the email reportedly threatened.

Musk knows he has spent billions on a lemon profit wise and expects staff to make up for his impulsive purchase. Unemployment is very low in the USA. The staff response will be interesting.
