Poor Linda Yaccarino (current CEO of Twitter). She must be wondering what in the actual ### did I get myself into...
I don't feel there is any reason to say that. She knew what she got into.
She is still gonna get a paycheck. Why does she care what Musk does? She is just a token CEO anyway.
She was just worried about having the title on her resume. That's all. Fucking grandiose narcissism. No wonder her and Musk get along.
Resumes probably don't matter at that level. From my own observations, executives are all hired through a buddy system. Someone always worked with someone else, or went to school with that person or was a neighbor or something. For startups that I have worked for, CEO selection was made by recommendations from the board. (Either the founder CEO is kept, or the founder is used as a promotional tool and sidestepped to a different role.)
I personally have never seen an exec get hired via the standard process of recruiters or resume submissions. It's not to say that doesn't happen though. Us commoners are usually removed from that process.
She knew, and she's an enabler. Fuck her.
She's literally a Trump supporter. She didn't have to go to a Nazi bar to be a Nazi. She already was.
Poor?
She's making bank having to do nothing and anything that runs X into the ground is easy to point at Musk.
She has an absolutely sweet deal.
Trump supporters generally don't ask those kind of questions of themselves. Like Trump, they like to pretend they're always endlessly self-assured in their thoughts and actions, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
People shocked that she's a fucking garbage CEO just didn't know about her past as a garbage head of a department.
I'm serious about the Trump supporting thing, too. She's a Trump supporter. The fucking stupidity and doubling down on said stupidity is required for that.
Don't feel bad for her. She knew damn well she would be leading a white nationalist platform. She's a fucking evil piece of shit.
Why would she? She has the same views as him, that's why she was selected.
But she was all excited to turn it around.
How could she not know ?
