Thread regarding Twitter layoffs

Who plans to quit when Elon takes over?

I'm waiting for the package, but in case I'm not laid off, I'm definitely planning a way to exit.

Copy the code and design / arch docs (be smart how you do it). This is tech world everyone does it, just as a reference for later.
Clean your laptop.
Do not trust anyone.
Heads down, pretend to work as normal.
Work on resume.
Get connected with everyone you like on LI.
Save you PTO, or use it all Now.
Do not quit, WAIT for layoff, there will be some package, but at least Cobra and some benefits extension.

Musk does not care about Twitter (he is super rich) He wants the platform from now until after 2024 election. Then it will be gone (or like Yahoo, just a has been but still around). Innovation is dead as all devs should stop real work and start looking for next gig.

If I were Elon, the first thing I would do is bring in my own trusted programmers, engineers and replace most of twitters staff as quickly as possible.

Face it there are most likely people that will or are planning to undermine what he will do.

Sure twitter will take some steps back, but best for the long run. I just hope he gives individual users choices to block what they don’t wish to engage with. Be able to block political parties, candidates people or subjects. Some users just want to communicate to people without all that junk. Someone may only want to discuss baseball, others may only want football….

Some may not want any sports and will only discuss their kids.

Right now Twitter is a free for all. It’s a mess.

I hate pretty much everyone I work with so I’m looking forward to most of you getting booted. Have fun pretending you’re actually going to get severance lol

Work as little as possible.
Say "yes" to everything.
Do the bare minimum daily.
Make it appear you are working 60hr/wk.
Complain that you are overworked.
Wait for severance.
