I’ll take “People Without a Clue for $50, Art”.

[TakebackGOP]

Good

[V_TWIN]

HAHAHAHA!!!!

Never understood how unskilled labor thinks they have the leverage to strike.

[yldstrk]

Wow. Good for Elon. Don’t want the job? We can probably find someone else.

[Red Badger]

Musk will hire a janitorial company at half the cost......................

[Principled]

FAFO

This foreshadows fear and loathing at the United Auto Workers union that parasitically exists at GM.

There are rumors that Elon Musk will buy GM. That will be an existential event for the criminal members of the UAW.

My first real job in High School was janitor at the Krystal on Main Street......................

[Joe Brower]

Sounds to me like a pack of whiny self-entitled bitches who got a well-deserved smackdown, and off they go complaining to a sympathetic press.

They can starve.

[Sacajaweau]

Feels like when I protested against mom when I was pretty little cuz I thought she should clean my room. Guess who won that one.

[bert]

Well, in a vertically integrated organization, Musk will buy or form a Janitorial company.

He needs janitors at all his facilities

[mewzilla]

They don’t need leverage when they think Deep State will fix it for them.

What they have yet to learn is that what Deep State giveth with one hand, it can taketh it away with the other.

[grobdriver]

Were these people happy with their jobs before Musk took over, or were they just testing the new management?

If so, it pretty much blew up in their faces. If they want to blame someone, they should blame their union managers for choosing poorly.

[LouAvul]

Nah. They had a clue. They wanted unemployment.

[V_TWIN]

Back when Main was full of strip clubs and porno theaters?

They are not Musk’s employees. They work for a contractor:

““Our cleaning contractor at Twitter was told by Twitter that they are cutting the contract,” said Olga Miranda”

Notice and layoff benefits fall to the contractor, not Twitter.

[RWGinger]

Former employees suing for severance? Aren’t they getting 4 months pay?

[Magnatron]

…said Olga Miranda..,

A cleaning lady named Olga. Whoda thought?

I think when you name your kid Olga, you’ve pretty much set their path…

[poinq]

He didn’t fire anyone. He canceled a contract. If the contractor wants to employ them somewhere else they can. And they can get severance as well. This article is crap.
