maybe the lowtax comparison works better if you frame it as what he could have sold the site for in like 2001 vs what he did sell it for.

so its weird to me that the blue checkmark ship it on monday or get fired team is doing this death march.
because there probably is some sort of law or regulation saying that boss man can't just show up and tell you to move mountains by next week or be fired "for cause".

otherwise, what's stopping abusive bosses from showing up, shifting deadlines to tomorrow and then when the team predictably fails to make it, it's cause for firing?

this may start a derail about wonderful things in american work culture

in most/all of europe its illegal to fire someone for refusal if your demand is unreasonable. i assume there are some vestiges of that in america (suck my cock, kill that man, etc), but idk if "work the weekend" counts (it does in denmark, you gotta plan shifts out in advance even if youre salaried)

bosses can fire you for whatever whenever

(get a union)

the thing stopping them from acting that way is that they generally care about getting talented, competent people to work for them, and to keep working for them

In states with actual employee protections, it would probably get contested in court as a violation of the WARN act (or similar local variants) and in the states without them, you can just fire them without making up a reason.

TBF it's been announced that everybody getting laid off is getting three month's pay and staying officially employed so it doesn't gently caress up their visas and such. So other than the C-suite, who are definitely gonna sue, nobody is being fired "for cause".

Edit: pretty sure some lawyer explained to Musk what the consequences would be of just firing people without compensation or notice.

Edit 2: it also doesn't make the act of firing the people working on your supposedly-urgent deathmarch project any less stupid.

people were talking about how the only ones saying "welp i got fired" online were a) women, b) brown, or c) their last name begins with a through m

i wonder if that last category is in there to soften the accusations of discrimination
