San Francisco Mayor London Breed offers jobs to fired Twitter employees

... “With talk of layoffs right now, including at companies like Twitter, a reminder that the City and County of San Francisco is hiring,” Breed stated on the platform run by Musk since last week. “With over 4,500 vacancies, we are ready to help sign people up.”

Breed also included a link to get people started on a job application.

“We have a lot of talent in our community,” Breed stated. “This city has good jobs that can transition easily from the private sector, such as analysts, IT, and engineering. But we also have vacancies in transit operations, public safety, healthcare, trades and more.”

State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) also weighed in, saying that Musk’s promised loosening of content moderation rules will lead to the platform becoming more “toxic.”

“Combined with Musk's signals that he will allow toxic accounts back onto the platform - thus leading to targeting and incitement of violence against LGBTQ people, Jews, people or color, and others - I see trouble ahead for Twitter, its users, and our democracy,” Wiener stated.

...

California State Assemblymember Matt Haney took to Twitter to express his concerns following Musk’s takeover of the platform and subsequent layoffs.

“Slashing jobs by the thousands without notice at Twitter, a hostile ‘nightmare’ work environment, creating instability on a site that people use to access critical information just days before an election–don’t defend of justify it, it’s wrong, mean & dangerous,” he tweeted.

“We don’t live in a country or state where private companies do whatever they want at a whim,” he added in a subsequent tweet. “Laws do apply within the workplace. Twitter employees, please reach out and let us know how we can support you.”

““With over 4,500 vacancies, we are ready to help sign people up.””

They can clean up the crap in the streets.

[BobL]

Might be a LEARNING EXPERIENCE for them...to see up close and personal just what they’re pushing on the rest of the country.

[EVO X]

I suspect 50% of Twitter’s workforce lives nowhere near San Fransisco and won’t return if offered a government job.

[lee martell]

That’s a good song. I haven’t heard Tom’s raspy voice in a long time. It takes getting used to.

[yuleeyahoo]

Pooper scoopers?

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

LOL! That’s what it means!

[Gasshog]

“With over 4,500 vacancies, we are ready to help sign people up.”

Doing what?

All managerial positions, “teleworking” no doubt.
the Left takes care of its own

out of the Public treasury

[Gasshog]

Only “toxic and dangerous” to you and your marxist policies Mr Haney and Wiener-boy

[rolling_stone]

...State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) also weighed in, saying that Musk’s promised loosening of content moderation rules will lead to the platform becoming more “toxic.”...

senator weiner sounds like a real dick to me.

[ridesthemiles]

NO NOTICE???

WHEN DID MUSK FIRST ANNOUNCE HIS OFFER TO PURCHASE???

[ridesthemiles]

A PRIVATE company NEVER does anything at “A WHIM”.

[ridesthemiles]

Who in SF government is going to teach these kids how to work?

Blind leading the Blind.

[cp124]

How long will Twitter remain in SF?

[Delta 21]

With the stellar bone fides of the prior twitter employees they should have no problem finding a top flight job in either the housekeeping or food service industries.

They are all more than qualified to pick up and filter thru the human feces inundating the city.

[Albion Wilde]

Oh, great. Hope some of them are shoveling the sidewalk soil enrichments.

[Albion Wilde]

Maybe these are positions previously held by unvaxxed employees. I suspect the ex-Twits were making way more than what a city job pays. I doubt there'll be many takers.

Good point about the untouchables.

Their average salaries were around $146,546.

[caww]

Well...they’ll surely ‘fit’ right in with the population there.

[Albion Wilde]

London Breed LOL! What is it with leftists and these pretentious names?
