    I can’t imagine how happy the people at SpaceX were when he got into the whole Twitter mud pile. There’s nothing worse for a company than a stupid CEO who way overestimates his own capability and constantly micromanages shit that a CEO shouldn’t even care about.

      I vaguely remember reading an article where the gist of if was “musk is busy with other businesses, SpaceX engineers can work unhindered by stupid questions and requirements” and their source was someone who works for SpaceX.

      I can imagine!

      I had this lousy useless roomie that just brought down the atmosphere and didn’t really contribute anything positive to the household. When he announced that he was leaving we were initially angry that he didn’t give us more notice, and when he ended up leaving even earlier than anticipated, we legit started jumping for joy the moment he stepped out.

      I gather the people at SpaceX felt something like that.

      The best CEOs are the ones you hear the least from, it means they are doing their job instead of micromanaging everyone under them.
