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.

Good. They work there to build rockets. They can be social justice warriors on their own time and their own dime.

Dear wokesters: here is your wakeup call.
To: z3n
Exactly. I had an asshole boss once, but kept my mouth shut until the day I left the company a couple of months later. Then I told him to his face what I thought of him. (To give you and idea of what a micro-managing jerk he was, he required everyone to come to him personally and get AA batteries for your computer mouse and keyboard. Yes, there was a very high turnover rate in a very small company.)

Don’t feel bad for these employees, NASA will pick them up. Because they have the right stuff as far as they are concerned, wokeness. 😋

Good news, people. You got what you wanted. You are now separated from
'Elon's personal brand'.
As the ole adage goes: be careful what you wish for.
Wasn't it Confucius or Buddha who said: may you get what you wish for.

"Good on Musk...That’s how it’s done! Taking out the smelly trash!!!"These are the same people who would vote in a union and destroy the company.

Now they can start their own space exploration company. Let's see how that works out.
So much for rocket scientists being all that smart!

Some think NASA will pick them up but no company wants workers who think the workplace is a place to invite discord among employees....activists especially. You can be certain NASA will have the names of those who were fired.

He’s one of the coolest, most-famous people right now and he does so many wacky and unexpected things, people just love how unpredictable he is....and that makes him an interesting individual. When you see all he’s done with his life it’s really quite amazing.

If you have a big mouth, then you’d better have big talent to back it up.

Years ago - an instructor at a IT tech school got into a discussion of behavior on our future jobs. He gave us the following advice :

If you have a big mouth, then you’d better have big talent to back it up. One needs good manners or fast reflexes.
Sometimes both.
