Elon Musk mocks former Twitter employee who asked about his job status

Elon Musk has time and again made headlines for his controversial tweets. The Twitter chief is now in the news once again for mocking a former employee of the micro-blogging platform. In a Twitter thread, an ex-Twitter employee, Haraldur Thorleifsson, claimed that he and almost 200 other staff members lost access to their work computers nine days ago. The ex-Twitter staffer also claimed that the human resources department, and Elon Musk himself had not replied to any queries on the matter. Soon enough, the thread caught the attention of the Tesla CEO. Musk replied to the tweet and asked Thorleifsson about the work he used to do for Twitter.

According to Haraldur Thorleifsson, his work included efforts to save nearly $500,000 on Software as a service (SaaS) contracts. At the end of the conversation, Musk mocked the worker with a laughing emoji. He even used a clip from the 1999 movie ‘Office Space’ to make fun of Thorleifsson.
