As for \u201cTrust in the platform?\u201d Are they even living on Planet Earth? No one trusts Twitter these days. They managed to wreck what little trust people had in them when they removed the Greatest President of the 21<sup>st<\/sup> Century, Donald Trump, and allowed actual terrorists and criminals to continue posting on the platform.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><b>The letter demands that Musk commits to preserving Twitter\u2019s current headcount if his takeover of the company goes through. It also demands he does not discriminate against employees based on their political beliefs and that he commits to \u201cfair\u201d severance policies and more communication about working conditions. \u201cWe demand to be treated with dignity, and to not be treated as mere pawns in a game played by billionaires,\u201d the list of demands says. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>You demand? Allow me to explain to you how the world actually works. You are employees of Twitter. Elon Musk is about to take ownership, meaning he will be your employer. You have no rights other then what are laid down in the law and in your employment contracts. I suspect the Twitler snowflakes are \u201cAt Will\u201d employees. This means they can be shown the door at any time.<\/p>\n<p>As for severance packages? That is usually what you are currently owed in salary and benefits at the time of your termination, nothing more. I\u2019ve gone through layoffs in my life, and only once did I get a severance package, (a very nice one as it happens), Every other time, it was two weeks pay and get out. In one case, the company, who shall remain nameless, screwed up my vacation payout and forced me to send them $2000.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/79\/cf\/97\/79cf97a8a1dda3462047cc50a33ffbe8.jpg?resize=330%2C330&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"330\" height=\"330\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><b>It was unclear how many Twitter employees had signed the letter at the time of publication. \u201cSignatures will not be made public unless we have critical mass,\u201d said a note sent to prospective signatories. <\/b><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/ea\/23\/fc\/ea23fc317950a351b6133aa54935691a.jpg?resize=400%2C264&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"400\" height=\"264\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And just what would \u201cCritical mass\u201d be? If the rumors are true, then 75% of these precious snowflakes are going to be shown the door in the next few months. All posting the names of the people stupid enough to sign the letter will do is paint a nice, big bullseye on their backs. This is something that\u2019s already happened a few times recently. Spoiled brats making demands and doing walk outs, mostly for political reasons, and being fired.<\/p>\n<p>I hope Elon Musk does can 75% of these useless idiots. Most of them will not \u201cLand on their feet\u201d as itr were and get new jobs with other Big Tech companies. Thanks to their president*, Bumbles Dementia Biden, the economy is in a recession and companies are either not hiring or doing layoffs themselves. Even those that were hired have not received their start dates, sometimes for months after resigning their old jobs.
