Have you seen the video of the woman going through her day at Twitter?

"Show up at office 10 AM; get latte; do yoga; one meeting lunch one other meeting; leave 330"

His message was designed to entice them to quit; he's trying to weed out all the slackers like the guy who reportedly after being fired for tweeting curses at Musk was offered a job by Reddit and turned it down because he "likes to rock into the office at 11 AM".

Now, MAYBE Musk means 18 hour days 7 days a week for months on end-- but that's not actually legal to demand people to work, and it seems to me that "9 to 5 with an hour for lunch and generally working not doing yoga" would qualify as "extremely hard core" for the employees.

Twitter will be fine long term; too many people are too addicted to it. It'll go through a rough patch, but it will come out the other end with employees who fit its new culture and in a much better place.

It's probably not 9 to 5 with an hour for lunch, it's probably the more typical USA, 8-6 with an hour for lunch, and possible crunch on and off for the forseeable future.

Shit, since they're in west coast time zone he should shift them to a 6:30-3 with a half hour lunch.
