Tesla to idle plant after Musk’s days-long duel with officials

Musk continues weeks-long string of tweets downplaying coronavirus threat

 

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/KtbxLvgpsXnLqlMflRRPdQTKMwSzkNHQxq

 

"The decision announced in a statement Thursday followed several days

of public pressure on Tesla by local police, city managers and health officials

about the carmaker continuing to run its California factory despite a county shelter-in-place order."

Elon Musk is a very self-important guy.

Nobody in business wants to sit on their hands while their factory sits idle. What makes him so different than the others who are suffering?

Now to his credit he has offered to produce ventilators. thumbsup.gif

 x2.

Does he not care/think of what consumers see/think when they view his behavior? I can hear people, "Boycott Tesla".

If he produces ventilators, it might put him in some people's "like" category.

You know, I started reading up on all the ideas he has and all the upstarts he has helmed. I am starting to feel like I am being nothing but a critic and I don't think that is entirely fair. Yes, he comes across as cocky and even perhaps arrogant, but the guy is a real mover and shaker. He is making things happen instead of talking about it. Perhaps I should give him some respect. Visionaries and geniuses often operate on a different level.

I read the biography on him and he really is a genius and as Cameron says, he's got a "unique" personality. I don't think I'd want to work for him. He goes through managers like we go through toilet paper!
