Now that’s the kind of ‘reset’ I can get behind.

He fired a lot, but this percentage is hard to believe.

Elizabeth Montgomery?

Good guess. Not her, though. Less famous, more infamous.

These woke idiots thought they were not expendable:

What they failed to realize is that every employee is expendable and replaceable.

Musk shut off badge access b/c he didn't want those "critical engineers" to sabotage his system.

Chambers?

Correct. That box came out just as she became famous for acting in porn. The Ivory Snow people had used a file picture taken of her before she got into porn. It was quite an embarrassment for them.

The numbers seem off. I don’t recall him firing that many.

As I remember it he fired half of the 7,xxx, then others quit leaving around 2,800 or so. Then 75% of the 2,800 quit leaving around 700. I suspect many of the 700 are Indian H1-B visa holders so they won't quit unless they have a job to go to right away. Otherwise they would need to return to India.

I suspect the Twitter platform could run just fine on around 200 skilled employees who are willing to work and hopefully get paid well so they don't feel a need to look for more gainful employment. I would screen them for their ideology. Shouldn't be hard since all leftist extremists have posted on Twitter for years without fear of censorship.

I hope and suspect Elon will move the Twitter HQ to a more business friendly state within a year or two after all the radicalized leftists have been weeded out.

If only the same could be done for the US government. This nation might stand a chance of thriving for another 250 years.

This is really no different than the federal govt. Im willing to bet at least 70% of the federal workforce could be terminated and the country would be fine. Perhaps it would run better and we stopped spending maybe turn a profit.

Marilyn represented the 0.56% of Ivory that was less than pure.

Tune in next week when Mush fires people who don’t even work for Twitter.
