“I miss my work friends” is a reasonable response to WFH. It’s not a compelling reason to force anyone else to return to the office.

Okay, I will engage with this once in good faith, because I do think there are people like you who genuinely do better in an in-person environment, and I DO think that despite the advances in teleconferencing technologies since the pandemic, the idea that zoom etc can completely supplement all the lost benefits of…
You sound like the guy who stops by my desk and can’t take the hint that I need to get work done instead of having a half hour conversation.
“While I’m sure many people dont care, some people (me) enjoy my office mates, enjoy hanging out with them, relish talking to them in person.”
His whole occupational status is morally wrong and he sure as hell has an ego to not want to reflect on that; it’s projection.
Given it’s Musk, I assume the real reason why he hates Work From Home is that it makes it harder for him to scream at employees about something after looking over their shoulder. Anyone working for him should really consider unionizing, see if they can get some Work From Home in the contract.
See the leader image for an example of what I’m sure he deemed “work.” Sure, watching a sporting event from the comfort of a petrobillionaire’s skybox is such difficult labor.
“morally wrong” says the man with no morals
Musk seems like the kind of person who checks his work email at 9 am on a Saturday to see how many messages he got, doesn’t bother to open or respond to any of them and counts that as a full day of work for reporting purposes.
It is insane how much more productive I am since I switched to WFH. And my quality of life has simultaneously increased significantly.
Not knowing the difference between factory and tech workers is worrying enough for any CEO, let alone one who owns both a car company and a social media company. That people still think he is the smartest man in the world is baffling.
“Work seven days like he does”. LOL OK twitter warrior
For me, the absolute last thing I want is work friends. You’re lucky I bother to learn your name.
There was a writer (or comedian; can’t remember who said this) who pointed out that falling back on freedom of speech was the worst argument possible not only because it’s misused so much, but because if your sole argument is that it’s not literally illegal for you to say the words, you’re giving away how weak the…
This guy has no idea what real “work” is. He think strolling around and yelling at underlings is work, like most CEOs, so he can’t comprehend how he’s useful if he doesn’t have people in the office to boss around. Hot tip: Most CEOs are a waste of money.
“even though he only takes about two or three days off per year.”
Also questionable.
Wait, wait, wait. You’re telling me that a billionaire, who can afford to buy and pay for absolutely anything his heart desires including the best childcare in the world, doesn’t see why working from home is beneficial to some of us? Is this the same guy who tweets constantly about plummeting birth rates and how the…
My WFH days are when I get the most work done. This week is one of my busiest weeks of the year, my boss told me to stay home so I can get more done. Trust your workers, Elon. If you can't trust them from home, either they have deeper issues, or you do.
This guy is fucking unhinged.
Musk claimed he had freedom of speech
