SpaceX has fired some of the employees behind a letter criticizing CEO Elon Musk's 'embarrassing' and 'distracting' tweets yesterday, claiming some workers were pressured into signing it.

The letter was posted to the company’s internal communications system Wednesday, hours after Musk revealed publicly that he had voted for a Republican candidate for the first time by voting for Mayra Flores in South Texas.

In the letter, the unnamed workers gave the company's directors 'one month' to 'swiftly and explicitly separate' from 'Elon's personal brand'.

They demanded that the company become more 'inclusive', and said its 'zero asshole' policy was not enforced clearly.

“ I guess they can always go out and start their own space vehicle company.”

That message is lost on the youth of today. You don’t like who you work for? Then go out and beat them in the marketplace, don’t whine like a little bitch, beat them at their own game, make your old boss come begging to U for a iob.

Yep! The Gen(?-whatever) types in my work group continually play "who's the smartest" in group settings; so, this is expected.

My 40+ years of professional experience produced more humility than anything else.

I doubt there was serious engineer or scientist in the bunch

I imagine it was all HR and marketing types.

A company is always stronger when the team is pulling in the same direction as management is leading. Leftists are kooks.

I would never criticise the head honcho of the company I work for publicly, unless it was a hill worth dying for

From the wording of their letter, I wonder if the snowflakes saw it that way - that this was the hill to die on? Or were they really that stupid? And their outrage was over Elon merely saying he'd voted Republican for the first time?

It was smart of Elon to eradicate that cancer before it infected the whole company.

[CodeToad]

I’d fire such liberal employees too! They would be nothing but problems and odds are they are underperformers anyway.

*OUCH*!!! Mine too.

It is hilarious to watch millennials start petitions at work...

Good!

This is how you deal with woketard employees. The 20 somethings think they are so special that they can bring and enforce their Marxism to the job and enforce it because they are so special.

[Sacajaweau]

They do have a similar pattern.

[silent majority rising]

“Define and uniformly respond to all forms of unacceptable behavior”. I guess Elon Musk just responded to unacceptable behavior, didn’t he?

[caww]

"The Bossman" shows how it's done!.

I think they forgot who is the CEO and who is the employee. GONE! GOOD!

LOL! The demands of employees today... I'm glad SpaceX has set an example here. Never in my wildest dreams would i have sent an email to the CEO demanding more inclusivity, or anything else for that matter.

Elon... like a boss.

LOL! Yup. It sounds like Musk has just now enforced it, clearly.
