Billionaire Elon Musk, owner of Twitter and CEO of companies like Tesla or SpaceX, has gone so far as to make it about the remote work that he’s been pushing on the social network since it was bought last fall. It’s a “morally wrong” question.
In an interview with the chain “CNBC”, the businessman said that the whole concept of remote work “It’s a bit like a fake Marie Antoinette saying ‘Let them eat cake’” referring to the fact that other workers cannot take advantage of it and have to go to their post every day.
In this sense, he criticized the people he referred to. “laptop class” “People who need to go to the factory, cook or fix their house can’t work remotely.”
“Laptop classrooms live “La-la-land”, but people who make everything they consume have to go to work(…) It’s no longer just a matter of productivityBut I think it’s morally wrong,” he said.
On the other hand, although Musk assured that he works seven days a week, he emphasized that he does not want others to complete work weeks like him, but at least spend time. 40 hours a week in the office.
