It’s only been two weeks since Twitter employees were escorted out of the Singapore office for not paying rent. What happened? No money or did Elon fire the finance team?
I’m conflicted on this one; firstly I’m shocked that the crown estate owns so much property in London and on that basis they can do one.
On the other hand I particualry like the just desserts that Twitter is getting under El’Musk, since his awful mnagaent style of just ignoring everything he doesn’t like.
So – ESH (Everyone sucks here)?
The death spiral of twitter continues to be hilarious to watch
This whole thing is just remarkable to watch come crashing down. And it’s not even finished yet.
What’s really interesting is to me is that you it shows how, as a rule of thumb, the Dunning-Kruger effect applies even to billionaires.
Much like illegally firing employees, I suspect this was the plan for Musk. Refuse to pay rent and then use that to try and negotiate a reduction or early cancellation of the contract.
Much like the lawsuits from fired employees, I hope the courts teach him a lesson in following the law.
Behind ever “business genius” idolised by right wingers, there’s a mountain of unpaid bills.
Musk will take to Twitter to claim why this is a personal attack on him, rather than standard practice. For all his acclaimed business nous, he is really just a billionaire who uses his money and influence to do as he pleases.
Doesn’t matter who the landlord is, if you stop paying rent then eventually someone comes looking for you.
Oh shit the staff are going to have to work EVEN MORE HARDCORE for their genius boss
Didnt he want to ban WFH in his companies? But also doesnt want them to work from the office?
am I going to have to side with the monarchy on something?
Why sue them? Just evict them……..that’s what would happen to anyone else not paying.
You only have to listen to him to realise that all he actually does is spout whatever enters his head. He is like a 6 year old who can’t control their thoughts. Except now give the 6 year old loads of money to do whatever they want.
Case on point on his Jo Rogan pod cast he said he made his space X engineers make the rocket more pointy. For no other reason that he wanted it more pointy
Can’t wait for this episode of Can’t pay, we’ll take it away. Seeing the bailiffs bouncing in.
Literally missing rent.
Seems like a strong and stable company to me.
People in this thread are really out here saying “I’d rather a private investor own all those crown lands, that would work mu h better for the public interest.” As if that worked in the US.
When you view the crown as a state institution that returns profits to the state, which compared to privaye individuals it does much moreso, then things get a lot more Socialist in perspective.
SpaceX would be doing better without having to handle Elon Musk.
