BREAKING:

Musk is now running Twitter with less than 50 key employees, down for 7,500 at its peak.

“Everything is normal, we may be profitable soon.” He says.

99.4% isn’t that Ivory soap’s germ killing percentage?…(99.44%)

I read something this morning that indicated that Twitter traffic is up too.

If this works it will be a case study for all MBA training.

can’t believe he didn’t the first time!

nearly all federal employees should of been fired and had to reapply for their jobs, and then weed out the commies and mentally ill in the process.

No, that was their purity claim.

I might consider reactivating my dormant account over there. I cannot say how long it has been since I opened it to pretty much never use it, 5 years? Ten? I honestly cannot remember.

Computers are like that. Systems can run for years of you don’t screw with it.

Twitter was a cesspool of worthless employees. I think it was the VA of corporatism. Totally incompetent people that got jobs as political favors. They did nothing and got paychecks. Now the gravy train is over for them.

[Anti-Bubba182]

What a crushing embarrassment if Twitter could be run with so few!

[EEGator]

Thanks. I knew the number was something…

All you really need are people to keep everything working.

Not only was there probably a lot of dead weight, but very likely a lot of them were doing nothing related to the technical development and upkeep, but instead working the 'social engineering' side of their game.

I agree with the person who said to higher conservatives.
Don't be like Trump and trust the establishment types to con you about their experience and connections. Find the guys who could make twitter themselves, and get them to come in and make twitter better.

Sounds like 7,450 people were just censors.
