They're trying to pull a WARN Act I think.

But I don't think that applies to a company that is owned by one person, only ones with boards and all that?

They tried the same lawsuit when Musk laid off some Tesla employee's a few years back. Musk won in court...

Yeah? I did it for you. She deleted that Tweet. Must've been getting trolled too hard. Instead, I posted that graphic in reply to this Tweet.

Right? You have to be either irretrievably entitled, or completely insane, or both to go from "I hate it here" to posting a picture of yourself crying when you get shitcanned five days later.

Elon's notice to some of the employees



Last night, there was much about The WARN Act protecting employees on layoffs (needing 60 days notice), but Musk bypasses this by paying them for at least 60 days afterwards.

Here is one shareholder who agrees with these actions:

Currently, I have a lot of negative stuff in my personal and work life.

This is one wonderful shining beacon in all of that. This makes me happy. We've been poked and prodded for years now. Finally, a strong push back.

'YOU'RE FIRED'

'During the Non-Working Notice period, you are still required to comply with all company policies, including the Employee Playbook and Code of Conduct.'

Violate any company policies during this time frame, and YOU WILL BE TERMINATED FOR CAUSE...Have a Nice Day! Wink

This the part that stuck out to me. I’ll bet you that the employee handbook contains some language that a lot of these morons will violate and be severed, thereby bypassing that silly 60 day crap at some point. Elon is proving to be a master troll with this project.

^^^Such violations likely include...ANY posting on Social Media the 'Disparages the Company', or otherwise violates Twitter's 'Community Standards'! Razz

And, since most of these people seem to be intellectual TWELVE YEAR OLDS, they won't be able to contain and/or restrain themselves! Wink

Hard to believe that this email would be sent with a spelling error. That message would have been drafted days ago and proofread dozens of times.

Is it really the actual e-mail?

^^^It's possible that wasn't the final version of the 'You're Fired' notification, and that it may have been leaked by a disgruntled employee. Of course, such conduct would obviously be a Violation of the 'Employee Playbook and Code of Conduct'... Wink
