A Message from Our CEO – December 2022

Dear Friends,

Buying Twitter was a huge lapse in judgment. Musk is a savant that forges new markets (bravo on Tesla), but his big Asperger brain is no match for the nuances of public discourse in an overheated political environment. He won’t be able to engineer his way out of this one.

You all know that I look at things from a generational lens and this is clearly a case of a scorched-earth CEO GenXer trying to bully his way in a “be nice” Millennial tech world. As the rest of the work world is migrating to emotional safety and safe spaces, Musk motto is "the beatings will stop when morale improves". So, check out our first piece from the Guardian on Musk’s mismatch.

Equally compelling is our next piece from Vox that tells us layoffs are historically low. Employers are realizing it is just too expensive to hire new people so they are getting into the retention game.

And finally, in Millennials news, there is an Adderall shortage—something you would know if you were taking Adderall and paying attention.

R.I.P. Twitter,

Warren
