Elon Musk Turns Several Rooms At Twitter Headquarters Into Bedrooms For Employees




 The world’s richest person and Twitter's new boss, Elon Musk, has converted several rooms in the Twitter office into small sleeping quarters for employees at the Twitter headquarters in San Francisco, according to a report by Forbes.

The sleeping quarters have unmade mattresses, drab curtains and giant conference-room telepresence monitors. One room also has bright orange carpeting, a wooden bedside table, a queen bed, and two office armchairs.

According to Forbes, beds are for "hardcore" staffers who can stay and work overnight at the office. Reportedly, there are around four to eight-bedroom pods per floor.

In November, Musk gave hundreds of Twitter employees an ultimatum that they work "long hours at high intensity" or leave the office. He reportedly fired at least half of Twitter's employees, and several other workers left because of the hardcore work culture.

Reportedly, ever since Musk took over Twitter last month, he fired about 50 per cent of the Twitter staff, including the top executives, scrapped a work-from-home policy, which was introduced in 2020, and imposed longer working hours.

In November, he also held an all-hands meeting with staff to talk about various issues related to work. He asked them to work 40 hours in the office. The tech billionaire also told employees to brace for 80-hour weeks.

Earlier this year, Musk made a bid to buy the social media giant for $44 billion. However, he backed out from the deal in May, alleging that the social media company understated the number of bot and spam accounts on the platform. Subsequently, a series of lawsuits started between Musk and Twitter. After months of speculation, Musk said he would proceed with the Twitter deal on the original terms. He purchased the social media giant for $44 billion ($54.20 a share) in October.

He has always been in the limelight over his Tweets.

“Iraq is Utilizing What They Have Right Now”

Here’s something good that I want to share with what I read today. It’s about  how Iraq utilizes a decentralized arrangement of administration, the Gulf countries and their organizations can investigate such financial possibilities with different individual Iraqi governorates, directed by the national government. This can likewise make a sound rivalry among Iraqi governorates to offer better costs and more good arrangements with Gulf organizations, as the two sides advantage. For me, Iraq needs huge monetary and monetary support. Monetary guide bundles can just reduce some tension on the present moment. Aside from Iran, there is insignificant territorial interest in Iraq's private area. Tehran's interest in Iraq has not given remarkable monetary advantages, for the most part because of authorizations. Inlet countries ought to investigate Iraq as a feasible competitor for their business ventures, and they can even use Jordan as a middle person to shape a solid financial ternio...

“A Reminder for the Role of Nuclear Program”

This is something great that I want to share about what I read today. It’s how whether or not Iran's nuclear program is expected for non military personnel purposes or for creating atomic weapons is quite possibly the most major problem with regards to local and worldwide harmony and security. The reaction to this inquiry will characterize what approaches different governments should seek after toward the Iranian system and its atomic aspirations. Yet, on the off chance that we carefully look at the historical backdrop of Tehran's nuclear program, it becomes completely clear that it was planned for creating nuclear weapons from the beginning. For me, the other reason would the system's nuclear record be loaded up with mystery and undercover exercises, when the Iranian chiefs could really benefit on the off chance that they uncovered all their atomic locales?
