    Tesla withheld wages from sick workers, visiting them at home unannounced, and demanding that they lift patient confidentiality and hand over their doctor’s diagnosis, or quit.
    Tesla workers in Germany require legal aid from their union 21x more often than the average union worker.

    More importantly, what are you still doing there?

      Sure, they should just quit and strap on their job helmet and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into jobland where jobs grow on jobbies.

      I’m sure all of the Tesla employees are looking for new gigs, but it’s going to take a while. And someone without a job facing homelessness and starvation will be willing to take their place.

      People need to eat? It’s not rocket science.

        More likely that they want Tesla on their CV, and not something ordinary like Volvo.

          People used to do the same thing for SpaceX. The advice engineers were giving each other was go work there for a couple of years then get out before they burn you out.

      They pay slightly more than minimum wage and haven’t fired them yet. I used to work at the plant in Fremont; nobody I worked with directly was really there by any real choice other than “I need money and they hired my ass.”

      But I mean… That’s the case with pretty much every job I had except for Relay.

    Native speakers, correct me if I’m wrong, but I think it’s either “how is it”, or “what is it like”, but not “how is it like”.

    No offense to OP!

      “How is it like” is slightly awkward, but not necessarily wrong.

        Is English not your mother tongue? If so I genuinely surprised 😮

          It’s not, and I don’t think my English is that good for a non native 😅

            Honestly mate if it was bad I’d say. I’d never have known. What’s your first language?
