Elon Musk mocked disabled Twitter employee

Cray said:
What makes you think that he even had Musk's private number? HR is your first port of call for employment status/issues, if they couldn't answer then it shows Twitter has some awful internal processes.

True. HR's #1 priority is to protect management from lawsuits.
 
Elon was diagnosed with Aspergers, so people are far from done with being offended by the way he gets things done. He often has no filter and says what snowflakes find to be inappropriate, and sometimes just is simply socially inappropriate.

Those who place a higher value on people's sensitive feelings than on speaking openly and truthfully, will always find to complain about with Elon.

Yeah my sentiment as well. I'm for transparency but that whole fiasco was an internal affair to Twitter and as I mentioned, Elon should've known better, especially considering how he later on apologized and reinstated Halli, realizing he was mislead on the situation.

A simple direct call could've avoided this whole mess. Now Halli comes across as whiny and bitter and Elon is perceived as that much more unprofessional and inconsiderate. *shrugs*

Well to be fair it couldn't be an internal affair cause the guy was literally locked out of internal mechanisms...

Can't even send an enquiry email to HR. Can't look up the number to call. Literally not possible to keep it internal or direct. That is like expecting someone in South Africa to drive their car to Australia.

I think this guy has EVERY right to be bitter and whine as much as he wants. Imagine the company you worked for treated you like this...

I understand and I get it but having a right doesn't mean you should. Always be professional and always keep your cool. The tweets I'm seeing from Halli after this whole situation comes across as even more bitter and childish. He's a public figure and has a reputation which is now being undermined based on how he's handling this situation.

Again, especially to those who are prone to misunderstanding or intentionally misinterpreting my posts so they can slander and garner some reactions, I'm not defending Elon. They're both in the wrong, it was a **** situation, but there's a lot to learn from this (and I suppose it's entertaining for some).

I'm just curios what you think he should have done? Cause you're saying what he shouldn't do but you're not saying what he should do to remain professional...

If I were in his situation, I would've kept spitting the facts and be as detailed as possible how I've contributed in that particular role at Twitter. Knowing Elon and his tendency to want extreme detail down to the minutes, I would think this would work in my favour.

I would also explain the situation of having sold the company to Twitter and contractually requested payout in salary, as I understand is the case with Halli. If this were a concern to me and I wasn't being paid out, I would raise that with him.

But at the end of the day, I wouldn't put emotion into it as it can derail very quickly, especially over text messages. I would've also requested a call to resolve the matter offline, if everything stated up to that point isn't sufficient to move forward.

Once the matter is resolved amicably, just drop it and move on.
Personally, I wouldn't want to work for Elon so I would move on to the next venture.

Edit: That's just me and my experience in difficult situations like this. I don't slander, be bitter or vindictive. I remain professional, get to an amicable solution and if there were misunderstandings, clear the air and move forward or if the other party is just foul then drop and move on, never work with them again, never recommend etc. And to be honest this has served me quite well, I'm peaceful and not filled with hate.

Well I do get to laugh at your long list of wrong takes and backpedaling often enough. So that helps cheer me up II guess.

Oh you... What an adorable weird nerd you are.

Don't forget to stretch before getting on your knees to lick Elon's boots.

If mocking Musk pisses you of this much, imagine how people felt with him mocking a person with muscular dystrophy.

I'm not mocking him for his dysfunction, I'm mocking him for his character, fkwit.
