An Email to all Tesla Employees

To: Everybody
From: Elon Musk
Date: Monday October 4, 2021

Subject: Please Note

If an email is sent from me with explicit directions, there are only three actions allowed by managers.

1. Email me back to explain why what I said was incorrect. Sometimes, I’m just plain wrong!
2. Request further clarification if what I said was ambiguous.
3. Execute the directions.

If none of the above are done, that manager will be asked to resign immediately.

Thank you,
Elon

While this is a fact, I'm not sure what the point of sharing the email is, aside from reinforcing that Elon is a massive jerk.
