Three former SpaceX supervisors told Reuters that Musk would have machinery painted in industrial safety yellow repainted to black or blue because of he didn’t like how it looked. The ex-supervisors also said that some workers were told not to wear yellow safety vests when Musk was on site.

It says they couldn’t wear yellow safety vests, but I’m guessing, at least at first, that they didn’t have two colors of safety vest available for all employees.

And repainting machines unsafe colors because you don’t like yellow?

Just criminal assholeishness. If he wasn’t so rich, he would be charged with reckless endangerment.

    Use your head. Put two and two together. Firefighter, Tesla, high voltage. What do firefighters do to cars? Respond to crashes and cut people out of crashed cars.

    If you cannot think of why a firefighter might have to cut through a wire, you might be too stupid for this world.

        If you cannot understand how they are only stupid IF they needed the explanation… you might be too stupid for Lemmy.

          I think we shouldn’t be inciting people to kill themselves, even when we disagree about things. “Too stupid for this world” is pretty clearly equivalent to “you should kill yourself.” It doesn’t matter if you’ve dressed it up by putting an “if” in front, it’s still toxic behavior.

            Saying someone is too stupid for this world is wholly and completely different than a KYS message. “Yea, you’re so stupid you’ll probably get hit by a car some day” is wholly different than, “go play in traffic.”

            Now please… practice better reading comprehension next time.

                I have a very important tip for you for successfully getting through life: Stop taking offense. The original statement was not nearly as hateful as YOU took it.

                Maybe you should figure out why you read it so negatively before you judge me so harshly. Otherwise, you truly are too stupid for Lemmy.
