Elon Musk is such a genius.
He's so good at his job that he has been accidentally firing people
over at Twitter.
People that he actually needs, and so in response,
human resources has had to step in.
In fact, Twitter workers are being mistakenly fired so often under
Musk leadership that HR has created a new internal category to identify and
rehire them quickly enough so business isn't interrupted, okay.
It's amazing.
Twitter's internal management system running on workday software now allows
managers and other leaders with hiring permissions to select
an accidental termination label [LAUGH] when re adding employees to the system.
A person familiar with the company said.
The new option was created because of the frequency with which employees had
been unintentionally caught up in layoffs, resignations and
sudden firings that have become frequent since Musk took over Twitter a month ago.
His most recent about firings came late on the night
before thanksgiving because he is a classy guy.
At least two people were mistakenly fired then had
to be re on boarded the following Monday.
>> Okay, so there's multiple layers.
>> He's kind of a smart person.
>> He's a genius.
He's definitely better and
smarter and harder working than every one of you watching this.
Yes, I mean you he's a billionaire, so he's better.
That's what we're all raised to believe anyway.
So, I don't buy that they're accidental.
>> Interesting.
>> I think they fire tons of people and then realize, oops,
that was an accident but not in the way that they pressed the wrong button
in the way that they shouldn't have done that.
I guess that's an accident.
He's emotionally in a knee jerk way firing tons of people.
So it's embarrassing that you'd have a label in there designed to cover up his
emotional outburst but also, I do think that you could in a company this size that
cares so little about individuals be accidentally fired and that's horrendous.
I don't think that should be possible.
I think that it should be a human thing.
If you are letting a person go forever altering the course of their life,
it should be a thing that cannot be done by accident.
And so and- >> Yeah, and look this is this is telling,
this next graphic is very telling, but
it really does reinforce what you're saying here.
Musk's cuts to Twitter staff have been so extensive that the company
told remaining employees to try to recruit some laid off colleagues.
Come on, come on.
>> Okay so you get caught cheating- >> Conservatives are getting so good at
business that progressives are getting- >> Nervous.
>> Worried, we're getting nervous.
>> Yeah. Yeah so good at business.
>> He's not a genius.
He's apparently not even a good manager.
He's- >> Have you ever seen his unbreakable
glass creation?
How can you say he's not a genius.
>> No, he's just a joke, and the the joke is on us though because many,
many people believe that he is in fact harder working than everyone.
He is smarter than everyone.
He is more talented.
It's just not true and it's not just him.
He's the worst example right now.
Billionaires are not better than you.
And some people have apparently had billionaire boot on their neck for so
long that they think it's now a natural growth from their body.
It's not, it shouldn't be there and you should learn to despise it.
Every time I criticize billionaires on social media by the way,
I get a ton of people just jumping in front of that bullet.
>> I know, can I just say there's nothing more pathetic than people who go out of
their way to defend billionaires.
Guys, go find real friends, get out of the basement, go for
a walk, talk to real people, billionaires aren't your friends.
Elon Musk does not care about you [LAUGH].
>> He doesn't care.
He's not gonna give you $1 million.
He's not gonna take you to Mars.
>> He hasn't owned the Libs if that's like the only thing that keeps you living these
days, like we don't care.
I mean this is high quality entertainment.
I love every minute of it, let me give you more.
One, people within Twitter are clearly getting pretty fed up with the antics.
One person says,
it's still just chaos as one person said of the company operations under Musk.
And even before thanksgiving, several employees had mistakenly lost access
to their work badges that service passes into and around Twitter buildings.
The people familiar said, some lost access to the internal slack which actually says
sounds like a bit of a gift or got locked out of their computers.
>> I like that [INAUDIBLE].
>> I'm sure you do, I'm never on it.
Similar to how people who actually were laid off or
fired initially found out they no longer work at Twitter.
>> Yeah, so Edwin sent me a message and it was a metaphor for this experience and
I thought it was a good metaphor at first, but then I thought about it more and
I realized it was an amazing metaphor.
He said, Elon Musk is cartman when he bought his own theme park.
And I thought, yeah, he did take it over to have fun.
But then I thought no wait, no, my God, this goes way deeper than that.
He fired everyone and then he had to start hiring people back [LAUGH] because he
couldn't operate the machines on his own >> [INAUDIBLE] Life imitates art.
[LAUGH] It's the exact same thing.
They really did foresee this like 20 years ago.
>> The real geniuses.
Yeah, great call Edwin.
>> Incredible.
Yeah, they're not better than you.
They're not better than you.
