Brilliant way to get the lazy ones to quit. And Don’t have to pay severance!!!

The MSM cannot forgive elonmusk for taking over a platform that was leftist, and catered to Left agenda. If you are not happy with Elon, then leave twitter.

If they exit, he doesn’t have to pay them. Who wins?

TarekFatah Thanos + Elon🌪⚔️

Yet it still works, and missing all of those people 😆

elonmusk is creating a LEAN, MEAN, FIGHTING MACHINE! What he has been able to accomplish in the first few weeks of ownership will be studied and imitated around the world in widespread measure. THIS is how you clear out the dead-weights and the trash! 🏴‍☠️💥👍

Good.

Good riddance. He said his best ones are staying so its win-win.

Twitter employees will be fine. There's lots of great jobs at Google, Amazon and Meta(FB).

Good. It’s absolutely awesome that at least lazy employees have common sense enough to lesvr on their own. That’s confirmation that lazy employees can have common sense

Many times it's the senior management that collect all the money off the backs of hard workers , ( look at our hospitals ), for one example. Wish he could clean house in the public sector.
