Musk may be a jerk but his track history shows he knows how to run a business

Kpmg is tuff

I don't understand why people think this was part of a grand plan, do people not remember that Elon tried to bail the minute he realized he actually had to buy Twitter, that Twitter sued to make Elon buy Twitter, and that the deal was finalized literally the day before a *Delaware chancery court* was going to make him close the deal, resulting in him buying a website at a premium during a tech downturn with comical amounts of debt?

This was all a shitpost, albeit a $44 BN one

For sure, but then why run it to the ground? Now that he actually has a crazy successful platform, make the best of it or hire someone amazing to run it.

Trimming the fat. Same approach should be applied to Meta and Google.

Interesting take - and I hear it.

Twitter and Meta's partnership to be announced in Q1 2023 will almost certainly not only save it, but propel it to be one of the most valuable companies in the world. I've personally spoken to hundreds of thousands of people who can't wait to virtually float around in a sea of shittweets. 💯🔥✊🤸🌊🌮

Maybe by next week.

We are in counter-trend longs this morning, trying to move up to 3032 HWB for the intermediate HWB short. There is a micro long here at the 3011 level. I would be a buyer of ES between 3007.50 - 3011.00. Anticipating a rally back up to the all the way half back level, 3032 - 3040.50 level. Gap Fill comes into play at the 3007.00 level as well. Short Term - Bullish above 2997.50. Longer Term - Bearish Below 3034.50.

Hi Fishes,

I received an offer (28 Lakhs + 3.9 Lakhs incentive) from Novartis for Sr Project Manager yesterday. This was just 13.6% more than my current earnings as Project Manager. I've given the reasons why I deserve at least 30% to HR. In response to that, HR has sent 2nd offer i.e. 29 Lakhs + 4 Lakhs incentive + 50k sign-on bonus. The 2nd offer is just 18.2% higher than my current earnings. Need your suggestion, if I could still negotiate with HR to finalize deal by asking for 25% hike?

Help - how do I fight claims by scammer healthcare providers?

I recently went to 2 different providers.

Dentist, made appt via Zocdoc to see a dentist that was in network. Another dentist at the location saw me instead who was out of network. I have text evidence they said it would be covered before visit. Claim was denied - asking for ~500 dollars.

Saw a specialist who’s office staff verified my insurance would fully cover the claim. Get the claim, says they are out of network. Owe 600.
