The billionaire owner and CEO Linda Yaccarino dialed in from out of town, vaguely touting new features that will roll out in the coming months.


There is very little surprising about Elon Musk’s methods of running X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, seemingly into the ground. A year after Musk officially took over the platform, both he and recently installed X CEO Linda Yaccarino held a joint all-hands Thursday to address some of the changes at the company and suggested that X might be a new financial platform.

Neither Musk himself nor Yaccarino showed up, according to a report from Fortune Thursday. The two executives dialed in remotely from Austin and New York City, respectively, citing an anonymous source within the company. Musk and Yaccarino skipping out on an in-person appearance during the all-hands comes after the former demanded employees return to office 40 hours per week last November, according to Insider, in one of his first sweeping changes as owner.

The only thing worse than having to go to the office to watch a video of Elon, is watching him in person

I don’t think that’s fair. When he took over Twitter, he was there every hour of the day for the first few weeks, sleeping in the office. He’s now running 6 major companies all around the US and people complain about using private jets then about not using them to show up to some events.

Don’t get me wrong, I would never want to work for him and strongly prefer remote work, but this claim is just unfair, he’s not working from home, he’s working from other companies he’s running.

If ceos can “run” six companies I don’t think ceos actually do any work.
