What a story: A guy who worked at #Twitter had access blocked from his computer, and HR never responded to his numerous attempts to contact them to see if he was fired. He tweeted out and asked Musk directly, and a spat ensued where he was asked in public by Musk to basically justify his value to the company. Then was told he couldn’t be fired because he didn’t do any actual work. Then #Elon proceeded to tweet at others about this employees personal medical history. To which the guy responded he was wheelchair bound and has progressing muscular dystrophy, which wasn’t a problem because he was a manager. Then Elon proceeded to suggest he was lazy and using his disability to not work, which another CEO chimed in saying he was one of the hardest working programmers he had worked with. During this HR did finally call him and tell him he was fired.

But that’s not the kicker, turns out this guy wasn’t some low level rando manager, and wasn’t looking for his severance. This guy had sold his company to Twitter years back with the contractual condition of employment, and if he was ever let go the rest of his $100M payout was due. Not to mention this guy now has a hell of a reason to sue for being fired on top of that.

Elon then asked the guy to stay on…

Those vaccines that Musk took have rotted his brain.

I heard Zuckerburg just tried to steal this guy from Elon to head up his metaverse revamp
