Silicon Valley "laptop classes" require to leave their "ethical high steed" with their "work-from-home bulls ***," Tesla chief executive officer Elon Musk told CNBC's David Faber in a Tuesday interview. Enjoy the complete video here: https://youtu.be/6pLLVqqF8VA
Can’t imagine why the owner of a car company has a problem with people working from home.
Bummed out 69 angry emos?
He’s right
The problem with divinity is you want everything to happen at once if you ask me. 🦎
That’s a ridiculous argument.
By that logic, he doesn’t have a right to own billions while so many people are starving on this planet, it’s morally wrong
Exactly
How is that the same? Bit of a reach.
101 %
Is just he likes to have Total CONTROL on his employees …
As someone who works in a factory, WHO CARES?? If people can work from home, let them.
You are so right
What do u do at the factory?
If everyone does how do you get your Food>?
@HERO GAMES Well, that’s why I said “IF people can”
Clearly, some jobs you can’t work from home, including mine. But if someone just works in an office, I don’t really care if they work from home or not.
Obviously you did
Car manufacturer saying it’s morally wrong to not drive to work.
Guy who extracts materials from mines with literal slaves tells you that you are immoral because you can work from home while a home repair guy needs to come to the home to repair it.
Underrated comment
Well to be fair, he didn’t say his workers need to drive to work. They can uber, bike, or take public transportation.
Nah he is extremely hardworking person and I understand the premise, but it’s not like I do it because it’s under me to go somewhere or I am lazy, I just make more money this way, at this point in my life.
I’m a truck driver and obviously I can’t work from home, But if you’re in a occupation that can work from home I 100% support it. Traffic on the freeways is complete disaster, the more people that can work from home the better. Let’s keep the highways open for people that have to actually go into work and can’t stay home.
Yeah, but your truck is a second home. 😉😀
@David E technically you’re right. But I hate traffic so let’s keep office workers at home lol
Well said and good logic. Elon is off base. It could be a bad decision for some people, but that is totally a personal understanding of what is good for your lifestyle. Individuals should use their own wisdom and descretion, not a one size fits all rational from Elon.
As long as the productivity stays the same
Yes I agree one hundred percent it depends on what industry you’re in I’m a Wholesale Distributor my work-from-home I do mostly all shipping I live in Southern California the freeways are mess there’s no point of me driving around I don’t have to
Drive to work, sit in traffic for 2 hours, pull out your laptop and sit at a desk.
Or take a goddamn train. Laptop workers usually live in developed countries. Most of the time ,public transportation shouldnt be an issue.
@Ionut Dragomir no
@Tywin Lannister 👌👍
@Tywin Lannister ^^
Government makes public transport system for a reason
Elon is a genius, but I think this is the dumbest thing he’s ever said.
And also that the world is facing under population
Elon is like the mad scientist with a smile on his face.
He is not smart.
Same man… This is not so much brilliant
My productivity as an IT worker is far higher and more efficient use of time working from home rather than spending 3 hrs everyday commuting to work. Rich people like Musk who doesn’t need to spend time on childcare, doing the school rounds, commuting on public transport, spending a quarter of wages on travel not to mention the lost time can talk off their backside about moral issues but in reality for many modern office workers going to the office everyday is a huge drain both physically and on the wallet.
He doesn’t care, just trying to pit us against each other with irrational reasoning and appeals to emotion, a race to the bottom where he stands to make more money and exert more control. People like Elon praise equality and morals, while internally viewing almost everyone else as mindless grunts in need of an overseer. It’s funny that he’s factually incorrect more times than not, talk comes cheap to this guy. The 8/9 hour day is pretty much stretched to the limit of sane existence for the majority of people, add the commute and personal maintenance and you’re left with almost nothing. Thank god for weekends – how about some team building?
And of course you charge for the benefit of the additional hours worked. if that’s the case
He’s not talking about the jobs that can be done from a computer okay whether that computer sits in a cubicle at work or sitting at home That’s not the jobs he’s talking about The laptop class that he mentions okay is not the IT class all right IT has always had to answer phone calls to tell people to turn it off and turn back on and they can do that at home or you know in a cubicle That’s not what he’s talking about
People need to work locally. We were at a factory and none of the people were local. Corporations talk about building local jobs and instead there’s all kinds of labor staff agencies that rotate illegal foreign workers and these same agencies take part of the employees salary and these corporations get away with paying less than minimum wage.
Yes yes yes. Commute and useless interruptions at work a total time waste.
If you can work from home with your job, more power to you. It’s better than sitting in traffic and having to wake up earlier and get home later.
❤️Hi..
glad to hear from you.
I appreciate your support
Where are you watching from?
yeah the issue comes when, especially mid COVID craze people were telling everyone to stay home. It simply wasn’t an option for a massive percentage of people yet still seemed to be the only moral option by much of the media.
It’s about getting up having the courage to face your demons and go out to the world deal with your problems and responsibilities head on, instead of being in your “safe space” of a home
@Zebedee Summers I had to go into work during the time when everyone was quarantined. A massive percentage of people? What does that mean? 80% had to go to work? I would look at the percentages of who had to go to work before you say “massive”, but that’s just me
💯
Nothing in this world is equal.
I’ve never been so happy to be “morally wrong”.
❤️Hi..
glad to hear from you.
I appreciate your support
Where are you watching from?
Capitalism
@Mariano how are you
Good. Now I gain the advantage!!🗿
Elon discussing morals would be laughable if he wasn’t being serious.
❤️Hi..
glad to hear from you.
I appreciate your support

@Elon musk🚀your moms house
@Toyota corolla altisOh will you grow up!
@Bobby B No he needs to grow up you really think the enslaver himself would care about any of this stuff this is either some identity thief or a little kid
You commenting from your Apple product while wearing your Nikes?
This is how the elites put one group against another.
Spoken like a true micro manager.
Amen.
Im a musk fan but he REALLY dropped the ball on this one. Like, bro. Most people have lives outside of work. Its so nice being able to work from home if you can so you can also get other things done WHILE also doing your work. Its like these CEO’s think you MUST give 100% of your time to you job all the time when the reality is people have lives they cannot ignore, even while working. Its called being a normal person and having a life that isn’t filled with personal secretaries and servants to do your things for you.
👏
What’s morally wrong is expecting employees to commute for hours to sit in a cubicle where you’re not allowed to talk to your coworker except on breaks.
People against working at home are just bad bosses.
A good boss knows what to expect from their employees and know when is has or hasn’t been accomplished in the office or in a different country..
“Get off their moral high horse” says the man on his moral high horse.
Couldn’t say it better myself.
he deserve it
Working inside a building 8 to 10 hours a day, being monitored by “supervisors”, given only a 1 hour break but working like a slave until you go home…that’s immoral!! Nobody wants that life anymore!!
Then take a new job
Different jobs have different responsibilities and roles so some people can work from home and some cannot, so yes it’s morally fine. 😂
His business methods are morally wrong.
