Doesn’t seem good for business to me

2018-09-08 14:18:51 UTC  

I mean Tesla gets similar finding from the US government and yet they still sell everything they can

2018-09-08 14:19:28 UTC  

No one accuses them of being money hungry

2018-09-08 14:20:44 UTC  

JAXA gets 2 billion dollars a year from the Japanese government, I don’t see anyone accusing them of being a scam

2018-09-08 14:21:03 UTC  

(I mean I will hate Tesla and Musk but only because I'm a disgusting socialist)

2018-09-08 14:21:33 UTC  

I don't mind Tesla but I find musk has ego problems

2018-09-08 14:21:40 UTC  

ESA gets almost €6 billion a year, no one calls them a scam

2018-09-08 14:21:52 UTC  

Musk seems to be going off the rails a tad recently

2018-09-08 14:22:00 UTC  

Tesla is funding battery technology so that's a green light from me

2018-09-08 14:22:03 UTC  

Tesla themselves are great

2018-09-08 14:22:10 UTC  

I’ve driven one, it is absolutely sublime

2018-09-08 14:22:24 UTC  

I think musk needs to see a psychologist

2018-09-08 14:22:40 UTC  

He needs some venting

2018-09-08 14:22:44 UTC  

Nah Musk smoked the big weed he's cool again now

2018-09-08 14:22:49 UTC  

I think he needs to hire someone to take care of Tesla for him like he did with SpaceX and just take a break

2018-09-08 14:22:55 UTC  

The BIG weed

2018-09-08 14:23:42 UTC  

Yeah musk needs to hire a series of groups for management and then go and play space man elsewhere

2018-09-08 14:24:08 UTC  

I admire how dedicated he is but it’s not sustainable

2018-09-08 14:24:17 UTC  

I think he would be better funding things that need it badly like biomedical tech

2018-09-08 14:24:27 UTC  

He needs to treat his workers way better

2018-09-08 14:24:44 UTC  

That's true

2018-09-08 14:24:48 UTC  

He abuses his cult of personality to overwork them

2018-09-08 14:24:53 UTC  

60 hour intense work weeks

2018-09-08 14:25:01 UTC  

I think it boils down to the fact that he expects them to be as single minded to Tesla as he is

2018-09-08 14:25:14 UTC  

Which is not a great idea

2018-09-08 14:25:22 UTC  

Iirc he literally slept in the factory during the model 3 production hell

2018-09-08 14:25:45 UTC  

That's not any way to live

2018-09-08 14:25:53 UTC  

That's unhealthy

2018-09-08 14:26:25 UTC  

We’re basically watching the fallout from living like that right now

2018-09-08 14:26:58 UTC  

I reckon he uses a lot of stimulants to stay productive that long

2018-09-08 14:27:15 UTC  

Might explain his behaviour too

2018-09-08 14:27:35 UTC  

I feel really bad for the guy

2018-09-08 14:27:38 UTC  

He’s had some really rough marriages

2018-09-08 14:27:48 UTC  

Apparently he lost a kid and didn’t take it very well

2018-09-08 14:28:46 UTC  

I wouldn't say I feel bad for him, (apart from the kid thing of course) but I do hope he gets out of this weird place.

2018-09-08 14:29:33 UTC  

After going through all that, doubling down on your work doesn’t really seem unreasonable idk

2018-09-08 14:31:35 UTC  

He’s done all the heavy lifting with Tesla and SpaceX, he just needs to take a step back from it all

2018-09-08 14:34:19 UTC  

He needs to treat his workers better

2018-09-08 14:34:35 UTC  

And maybe apologise for calling the person who saved the kids a pedo

2018-09-08 14:35:07 UTC  

Instead of doubling down on it 😂

2018-09-08 14:35:19 UTC  

Apparently the guy has lawyered up though so that’s good to hear
