I have worked extremely hard to get where I am, and I’m not even close to where I want to go.

As Twitter workers complain of Elon Musk being too demanding, he asked for 40 hours a week or more. (Thread)

1/

I know he is a controversial figure, and he often speaks impulsively, part of what it is to be autistic.

that aside, why is working 40+hours a week on a company you’re passionate about a bad thing?

(My longest stretch of work without a day off was 1,496 days. No vacation or 2/

… holiday)

I had to do it, because I didn’t have a fancy degree, and I was on another medication to knock out a horse.

I don’t understand why everyone feels they should be able to make a lot of money without working.

FYI, $TWTR was losing 4 million a day.

I followed the court case very closely. I am neither a fan, nor dislike Elon Musk. I am certainly not a fan of the way humanity has treated him.

I absolutely abhor Donald Trump. If you compare the two, musk is like a Santa Claus.

I would typically put this thread on my financial account, but I’m done hiding what I can do.

as a supporter of #MentalHealth an #equality, & #kindnessRipples, I was astonished someone is suing him because they wanted to work from home, using disability as an excuse.

I have used Twitter since 2013, and it is the only social media site I actually enjoy because I can learn so much from all of the amazing minds here.

Why are we so caught up in wanting to hate someone we don’t know? Endorphins rush, we feel strong, but at the cost of another. 6/

I believe that humanity is much better when we unite, look for the positives, put forth our best effort instead of complaining, and root for success for all the people we know.

Even those we dislike. 7/

I believe that if you can’t show kindness, or at least respect to those you dislike, you aren’t kind IMO, just manipulative. (this does not apply for abuse or healthy boundaries. This is about coworkers, or friends that have a different political belief)

8/

Since 2016, I have seen more hate and anger than any time in my life.

As of today, any person that I follow posting cruelty, mean things, aggressive things, and anything less than respect and open minded dialogue will be unfollowed.

9/

I do not have the capacity to provide light, empathy, compassion, and love to the world around me when everything on my feed is negative and toxic.

10/

I wish everyone well, but more so, I hope humanity will grow up and lift each other up instead of finding joy in pulling others down.

I have seen this in the mental health community, and everywhere. It has no place in a world where beauty and love should rule.

Just a follow up that this individual does not have a disability at all, and just wants to stay at home due to COVID-19.
