I have to think that anyone prepared to drop $2.4M on anything is going to have someone inspect it carefully before making any kind of offer. And anyone really motivated to buy this car only needs to hear that it’s for sale. Better pictures aren’t likely to tip the balance on a decision to pursue it.

*looks at username* shocking

For awhile Tesla had a product that could sell itself. No need for PR department, sales infrastructure, etc. Now they’ve got increasingly stale product, with one kookoo guy on twitter leading the sales pitches, who’s take basically is you’re an idiot of you don’t give your life to this product and vision. Pass.

4th gear: Tavares shouldn’t push the salary issue too hard; the last automotive CEO named Carlos had to be smuggled out of the country in a box.

If you’re a recently laid-off Stellantis worker, know that the complete uprooting of your life and cessation of your healthcare went to a good cause: Paying one guy more money.

yup, we had almost 30 service appointments for monday but no service advisors to deal with them because we all got fired lol. not my chair not my problem

don’t even know how many weekend flat tire tow ins so probably 35 appointments but no customer facing service staff to deal with them

I’m old enough to remember when Hyundai hit these shores with the $4995 Excel and everyone laughed. Stunning how far they’ve come. 

Yep, probably hundreds of thousands of non-union workers are benefiting from the work of the unions. They should find a local UAW member and offer to reimburse half their union dues.

Yes, I think all the major manufacturers gave raises after that contract. It’s part of why the UAW is doing a good job of trying to get in with them and could actually be successful. It was a clear attempt to match the UAW, but now the UAW can try to convince the workers to be part of that instead of hoping someone…

In almost all other companies, Elon would likely be fired. He wouldn’t be allowed to have 5 jobs and not focus on the company.

Didn’t Tesla raise employee pay in January shortly after the UAW negotiated the new contract with the Big 3? They were essentially forced to do so to try and thwart unionization efforts. 

Looking at the stock price today, it didn’t even last 10 minutes.

This is the completely wrong take.

You also discourage talented, experienced people from considering working for you as well.  Double-edged sword.

“As we prepare the company for our next phase of growth...”

I wish you the best of luck finding a new position not working for that douchebag. 

Feel bad for the Tesla employees. This is why you need unions. It’s not about pay, so many people (granted most of them were tesla fanatics in social media or musk himself) tried running with the argument “they are already paid more than standard, why do they need a union?” Well this is why, when it is decided to lay…

Every automaker made a boring crossover that only comes in greyscale and costs 70,000 dollars and decided that showed Americans don’t like EVs.

I am familiar with a Chevy Spyder. It had nothing to do with if the top came off or not, but the existence of a snail in the engine bay.

That car just looks like it reeks of vapes and protein powder farts.
