I'm predicting the breaking news story for June 2nd is they find out they're fired.
Happened to me there, though not as long. Friday, they told everyone on the line I worked on (S) most of us were being let go, but a few of us (myself included) were told we were staying. Fast-forward to Monday, they called me while half-way to work (this was in Fremont and I live in the central valley, so it was a 2 hour drive without traffic; which is never going to happen on the Altamonte) to say they actually let everyone go.
I am a cynical bastard, and I wonder if they told everyone that they were one of the people not being let go, then contacted them later to tell them everyone was being laid off.
It gives the workers a -temporary- feeling of relief. Which could stop a riot etc etc.
And it's so very dishonestly devious that it's deffo something that Felon Mucks would do, just because he can.
Nah; like the first part where they said who was leaving and who was staying on was in person at the factory. Like a "stand over here if your name is called" thing.
That really sucks. I'm not sorry for Tesla, but I'm sorry for the workers caught up in the shit show.
So an indefinite furlough… got it.
