I almost get the sense that he's angry he was forced to buy it, and taking it out on everyone there.

"Here’s a question I’ve been wondering about:

Is Elon Musk trying to destroy Twitter?

I’m not sure why the new owner of the social media app would want to do that. Yet, if the decisions he’s making are any indication, it almost seems like that’s the plan..."

"John Brandon is a well-known journalist who has published over 15,000 articles on social media, technology, leadership, mentoring, and many other topics. Before starting his writing career in 2001, he worked as an Information Design Director at Best Buy Corporation. Follow him on Twitter: https://twitter.com/jmbrandonbb"


To be clear, it's not my opinion, but perhaps you're the one who is ill informed.
I'm not ill-informed until someone can show anything I said is incorrect. Who cares what yet another "expert" thinks about Elon? Your CNN quotes says nothing about 80 hours per week which was the allegation to whi9ch I responded. And that memo came out days after the allegation.

Nah... There are massive layoffs in the Tech Industry right now. Techies will be swarming him with applications.

Plus he has the Tech from his other companies that can help pick up any slack. He's about to put people on the moon. Finding people for Twitter will be a breeze.

Sooo I’m told by two people that the entirety of Twitters payroll department has resigned/not elected to sign up for Elons Twitter 2.0. People are genuinely unsure how this company functions come next week. As is, some emergency contractors are going to have to come in asap just to cut checks.
