So they’ll be coming in every day to their offices in Washington right?
…right?
It’s interesting they have multiple offices. Offices they’re already not in. If there was a time for a general strike it is forever ago.
How many days do you think it will take until he calls for unions to be declared illegal?
He is already arguing the NLRB is unconstitutional.
Depends how much Musks’s companies try to unionize.
I agree! If Elon musk cannot show up to his offices at Tesla, SpaceX, Twitter, xAI, and Washington for 8 hours Monday-Friday, he should be fired without severance as CEO or co-chair of his government department.
Rules for thee, not for me.
Working from home for all jobs that it is compatible with should be a mandate to help lower the amount of gas necessary for commuting.
You think these ghouls don’t have tons of investments in oil.
Yep but that means you’re not buying gas, which is a crime
Exactly! People died for this gas, don’t you care???
And avoiding government inefficiency, exactly what their dept is actually supposed to be advising on
To help bring good jobs to rural locations, that’s how you convince people
That hurts their profits
“The Deep State appreciates your hard work, know how, and dedication. Come work for us from home and help stymie the Shallow State”
General strikes, anyone?
Please!
But oh no here come the liberals again to tell us how that would hurt the economy and people need to be able to buy stuff. And that this just still isn’t the right time to make a big fuss.
Imma be real… this isn’t even a GOP vs DNC thing, the government has always fucking haaaaated telework, especially since Covid let the genie out of the bottle.
It’s still going to be handled significantly worse than the DNC would though.
Back to the grind slaves. /S
Why the /s? They’re not being sarcastic and you’re just quoting them.
The asswipes, Elon and Vivek, own several empty office buildings.
You got to love this. The Pentagon just failed its 7th audit in a row. It has a budget of $1tr. And yet the cost savings team decides that penny pinching by making life harder for workers is where the real savings are to be found. Not the giant black hole of finance which is the military industrial complex.
How is working in the office saving the pentagon money?
Noooo shhhhh, we’re not supposed to talk about HOW THE PENTAGON HAS NEVER PASSED AN AUDIT. We’re supposed to be talking about the border, come on people, get it together.
You’ve gotta look at it from the perspective of a poor multibillionaire who desperately needs to buy his fifth superyatch so he can work his five CEO jobs remotely
Lol, how fast would he get merked for suggesting we cut Pentagon budget
A people elected government has a mandate to protect its people. Its real frightening to see that instead it announces adopt the worst business practises of private economy.
“Requiring federal employees to come to the office five days a week would result in a wave of voluntary terminations that we welcome”. this is and was always the reason american businesses were eager to force everybody back tp work. eat the rich.
Don’t forget to include giving middle-management a reason to exist as well as justifying the commercial properties expenses! Man do I hate capitalism…
It did seem weird to me that Harris or any of the other democratic candidates campaigned on remote work. Seems like a smart pro-worker position to take that would directly impact a group she was trying to court: college educated professionals who skew male. Plus lower environmental impact, cheaper gas, more opportunities for working parents, etc.
The cynical reason I assume it wasn’t a talking point is because the 1% who directed the media conversation had a vested interest in return to pre-Covid status quo.
Campaigning on remote work doesn’t really resonate with blue collar workers, though.
They’ve got to be where the work actually is to do their job.
It’s only the “paper pushers” who have the provelege of working remotely.
The American people were sold a big fat lie that a vote for Trump was somehow going to be good for the working class, and reign in capital interest.
god I fucking hate these people. Pure fucking hatred.
