So when is this RTO to begin....with triple threat on the rise and no walls up. Still trying to figure out the purpose if we work independently as a team. people may pass out wearing a mask all day if they choose to wear one.

However, it seems that there quite a few of those whom Ford has got rid of, but who intend to try to get hired back as contractors in the coming period?

I'm not saying to make it our only priority, but there's an opportunity here. Tesla has seen its best days. Their main consumer segment is vowing to never buy Tesla again because of Musk and his latest comments and theatrics. He is single-handedly... — read more

Headed towards sub $11. Let's start a guessing game, what level will it get to in order to get Farley canned? When it hits $7.99 Farley gets the boot. And Doug too. Clearly data and subscriptions are a total failure.
