I used to work for a company that had an American department. They were shit scared to make any changes/upgrades for fear of anything going wrong and thus getting the bullet. So, we had to do most of it. You basically can be fired on a whim, but there must be cause, however flimsy. Not replying to an email cannot be taken as resignation or indeed grounds for firing.

Rayvin 5898 Posted Monday at 06:11 Share Posted Monday at 06:11 It is extortion, and there is no defending it. Not only do we need to move away from the US strategically, we also need to shift from their systems and infrastructure. This is going to be a painful few years for Europe as we all come to terms with this, but honestly on the other side of it things might be quite positive with more reliance on homegrown considerations. I mean it's a long shot if we even get there without first tearing ourselves apart from within, but assuming we can stave that off, we might be in a much better position. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 49458 Posted Monday at 10:56 Share Posted Monday at 10:56 At least the Ukrainian people will get to see who he really is now. They were on about naming things after him a couple of years ago, when all he was doing was using them to run away from domestic issues and cosplay as Churchill. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't happen of course. No need imo. I genuinely think Tesla is fucked. Sales down 60% in Europe, it's not going to recover with Musk in charge. Same thing with X. It's finished as a commercial venture. Banning it won't achieve anything much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
