Can rejoice in Musk's complete Twitter failure, first, he traps himself into buying Twitter when he really didn't want it, while chasing clout, he didn't do any real due diligence and then realizes what a mess he got himself into, so he spends the first week pleading with famous people to pay the same kind of subscription fee to keep the blue check mark. Then how did he end the week? By getting sued by the Twitter employees he laid off. LOL. That is a ton of mistakes for a business "genius"

Time will tell if he is able to make a success out of it.

A part of me would be happy if Twitter fails and Elon's ego dies a little, after laying off half the company in one go. Heart goes out for all the laid off folks.

You speak too soon. We don't know if it's a blunder or works out fine for him.

Everyone will realize that he's smarter than you're giving him credit for. He's got a plan, and even though we can't see it now, it's not going to end in failure. He's too smart to spend that much money for it just to drive it into the ground.

Never bet against a genius like Musk. Let me guess, you’re in your 20’s or early 30’s, and you’re offended by my correct assumption?

Honestly I can't decide what to think about it all. Elon Musk seems a little too big for his britches if you ask me. Everyone thinks he is just going to take over the world....Elon for president type of thing. I don't know, I am just annoyed by it all if I am being hoenst.

Perhaps it's still too soon to say if he actually fumbled with this new venture of his. But if he does end up flunking it, maybe it's deserved because he could have used the money to help end hunger and not drive more people into unemployment.

I agree with the others. There is a reason he’s worth billions. Twitter honestly was a piece of crap platform to begin with. Musk will make it and unlock the potential that predecessor in his position could never do. Plus the people running it before were stupid liberal power hungry losers. Now we at least have someone who’s right minded thinking, can turn it around. Firing all those employees was step 1. Drain the swamp of all the losers and current employees who think twitter is actually great. And by the way, all bidens followers are fake!

I think he's smarter than people give him credit for, but this feels a little extreme.

I'll for sure be tuning into the battle with the laid off employees. I really hope they get something good out of it.

I couldn't even wish him luck on his upcoming legal battles. What was his motive in the first place? I really don't get him.

We can't really know what's going on inside his head. He's a genius after all. Let's see what will happen in the future.

I think I have work trauma not sure how it’s clouding my ability to make decisions. I’ve had unstable work after being laid off from a company 3 years ago. I thought I worked out a plan to get to a stable place but my job is proving to be unstable yet again. I secured a FT role at another company but because it’s a lot less money I’m unsure because I feel very cynical about companies in general. I assume it’ll be just like all the rest but now I’ll just be making less and could get laid off.

Hi fishes,

Today I got an email from TCS to complete an ibegin registration. Whenever I login, it is asking me to enter PAN details and mail ID. If I give, it is giving a warning that my account is already present in ibegin and telling me to login with another email ID. As if I remember, one of the consultancy, used my PAN to register in ibegin but I’m unable to login since it is registered by their mail ID and my PAN.
