“You can listen to music but don’t waste my time”: these are the emails that Elon Musk sends to his employees

They come to light the emails that the tycoon of electric cars and space rockets, Elon Musk, sends to his employees. The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX has once again demonstrated his eccentricity and his character when running his companies after making public e-mails that define his personality perfectly.

Some messages that ride between the most understanding leader and the most authoritarian hierarch. Texts that cause employees to not know whether to admire Musk or fear him.

“I don’t care if you listen to music, but don’t waste my time”

The US media CNBC has had access to two emails that the magician recently sent to his employees. In the first email, sent on October 3, Elon Musk encouraged his factory staff to listen to music while doing their work. However, it encourages you to use a single earpiece so that you can hear potential security concerns:

“I just wanted to say that I am very supportive of music in the factory, as well as any little touches that make work more enjoyable. A partner just sent me a note asking if we could have a headphone for listening to music so the other ear can listen to safety-related issues. That sounds good. Plus, the background music from the speakers is great too as long as there’s reasonable agreement between your colleagues about the music options. If there are other things you think would make your day better, let me know. I really care that you feel like coming to work every day! “

A message that seeks peace and harmony in the work environment, as well as promoting consensus among employees when choosing music. However, this first email is far from the one sent the next day, where urged workers to strictly obey orders:

“If an email with explicit instructions is sent, administrators only allow three actions:

1. Email me to explain why what I said was wrong. Sometimes I’m just wrong!

2. Request further clarification if what I said was ambiguous.

3. Execute the instructions.

If none of the above is done, the manager will be asked to resign immediately. Thanks, Elon. “
