Well, I can see why you would be put out if I said that, but I didn't. And despite my repeating that I didn't say that, you continue to insist that I did. That's pretty much a textbook example of obdurate non-comprehension. Please try harder.I tried, but nothing else fit your insistence that people are being forced to work at Tesla. It's as if you believe they are being pulled out of their beds in the middle of the night only to have a gun pointed at their heads to sign a job contract there. It's a bizarre idea.
Meanwhile, for sane people, let me repeat that there seems to be no choice for Tesla employees. If they want to work for Tesla they are forced to gamble on the stock price. There is no option to say "just give it to me in salary". Most people working for Tesla on the production line will never have invested in the stock market, won't understand it, and certainly won't trust it. It would be okay if the attitude were to treat the stock market gamble as worth nothing, with only upside. But Elon changes that when he starts talking about the stock options as a valuable part of the compensation package. It creates expectations. This is a very bad idea. It will just create ill will if the stock doesn't regularly go up. Why do that?
