Ex-Tesla employee reveals shocking details on worker conditions: ‘You get fired on the spot.’

I’m curious about how far this goes.

You can’t get fired on the spot in NZ, unless you like, shot someone or set the building on fire or something really bad.

But it seems that in the US, there’s little to no protections for employees when their bosses are dickheads?

Also, any personal stories of getting fired on the spot?

    Your daddy was a fucking cop and you’re expecting that to be the checkmate to stop leftists from dunking on you?

    I work in facilities maintenance, not remotely inherited.

    Suuuuuuuuuure. No connections or assistance whatsoever. Rags to riches. A small loan of thousands of dollars and a floor beneath you to help you back up when you fell.

    I already think you’re a liar but even if you aren’t you’re not painting a very pretty picture of anything but living in a bubble world of privilege and being unaware of it.

    I was also fired from jobs and it was no big deal?

    Yes, because you had a floor beneath you when you fell, you spoiled failchild. Lots of people are literally homeless when they lose their jobs, or just die because they can no longer get medical treatment for what afflicts them.

    Not everything and everyone is evil bigot sexist racist corporate.

    You tried to be hyperbolic there but so far you’re just accurately describing yourself, if only you had any awareness of what your “I just fire people when I feel like it, I am very cool, calm, and collected” self-congratulatory statements sound like to the rest of us.

    Take your soap box elsewhere.

    Cram yours nice and tight so your smug nepo baby bullshit stops pouring out.

    And have a nice day.

    You just derailed your own tough guy attempt by ending with a passive-aggressive sneer. congratulations

      Wow. I hope you feel better about yourself. Clearly you need it. I have no interest in continu ing this. You are wrong about me on almost every count but I’m not interested in justifying myself to you. Go back to reddit/Twitter, please.

        Your concern trolling is noted and will be given all the consideration it deserves.

        I have no interest in continu ing this.

        But you probably will, because you want that validation in front of an audience you claim you don’t care about so very, very badly. That’s the plight of small business tyrants and other nepo babies: it isn’t enough to be greedy and cruel; you want to be respected instead of mocked. Poor baby.
