Eight Reasons the MetaVerse is better than Hybrid Work


#WorkFromAnywhere #wfh is all the talk now and so is:
  • the effect of Covid vs the effect of the fear of Covid
  • gas prices are too high
  • increased productivity
  • happier with 'work', vs working
  • office appearances are lower in priorities than family, fun, Netflix, & sweatpants 
  • real friends (vs work friends)
  • lower crime in the 'burbs
  •  etc., etc., etc.

Musk Uses His F*ck You Money

How about this guy...the absolute literal definition of "F*ck ewe $":

“I invested in Twitter as I believe in its potential to be the platform for free speech around the globe, and I believe free speech is a societal imperative for a functioning democracy.  As a result, I am offering to buy 100% of Twitter for $54.20 per share in cash, a 54% premium over the day before I began investing in Twitter, and a 38% premium over the day before my investment was publicly announced,”. 

“My offer is my best and final offer and if it is not accepted, I would need to reconsider my position as a shareholder.”

...and heads blow up all over the world...next on the block?

FaceBook. After that?  Universities/higher education.

Twitter is no different than FB or Google(Meta or Alphabet). 

Consider Musk as a player in the MetaVerse.  Giving everyone on the planet a shared experience through telepresence, of a walk on Mars.

Then I read about it will be another ten years before "fully automated shipping warehouses" are a thing.

I don't believe Amazon.
