I volunteer as tribute if it means I can get fired in 6 months for my incompetence and be provided with a $25 million dollar severance package.

me me! pick me!

I cannot coherently express how much I hope he gets margin called on all of the leveraged assets he has that are underwritten by his TSLA shares

Elon losing his job is just fucking priceless. ❤❤❤

I'll do it. Here's my CV. As you can see, compared to the current CEO it's vastly better:

• can beat a tutorial boss. In fact, has beaten many final bosses
• has never done a nazi salute
• is loved by partner and child

To top it off, I'll do it for the low low price of 200k/year

The board needs to not only punt Elon, they need to buy him out.

I'll consider Tesla as an option a decade after he's been scrubbed from the company.

They should look into filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and liquidating the entire company.

Still means fuck all as long as he holds his Tesla shares. All you're doing is making him more money by making the shares go up again.

Drive the stock into the forking ground.

I've been expecting this, and it isn't the only thing coming.

Before the recent earnings call, which was far worse than we even expected, we hadn't heard much from him over the previous few weeks. He knew that terrible call was coming, and had been laying low, probably hoping things would improve some before making what he knew would be a disastrous earnings call. It was the equivalent of watching your diet 3 days before a doctor's appointment, hoping your weight gain and cholesterol increase won't be as bad as you know it is.

Also, it was a safe bet that his board of directors was livid, and that he had been ordered by his board to get back to work, or be removed as CEO of Tesla, and now it looks like they are moving toward with firing him. So why that decision?

The probable reason is that now that the earnings call confirmed what everyone suspected, there is almost certainly a shareholder class-action suit brewing over his reckless and irresponsible behavior over the last several months, which has directly caused severe, and probably irreparable damage to the company's brand image AND it's sales around the world, as well as tanking the stock price, an unforgiveable sin in the investing world. Now that the bubble has popped, it will never inflate again. As future earnings reports are released, and sales continue to slide, the stock will continue to decline, and the cycle will continue until bankruptcy. And it is all traceable to Skum's self-indulgent, egotistical behavior.

The only question is will Skum be the only defendant, or will the lawsuit also name the individual members of the board, for not reigning him in, or firing him. They don't want to be sued alongside him, so they are forcing him to get back to work saving Tesla, or even getting rid of him altogether, thus letting them off the hook for legal liability.

Its doubtful Skum, or anyone else, will be able to save Tesla at this point, its almost certainly too late. It is also probably too late to avoid a shareholder lawsuit. Investors have lost millions of dollars, not due to the vagaries of the market, but due to Skum's outrageous behavior, like throwing up celebratory Nazi salutes on national TV, which, as CEO, he should have realized would damage his company and its investors significantly.

And arguing that he didn't recognize the danger in advance is no excuse at all for a CEO, who should have been able to predict the response to his self-indulgent ego bender.

Shareholders have lost many millions, and they won't just let that go with an "Oh well." He's likely going to get sued, and the board is just making sure they don't go down with him.

The American consumer is a fucking idiot, this has a high chance of success as people forget about Elon and go back to buying them.

I could do it, no way I could do a worse job then musk.
