Weeks ago, Elon Musk presented his Twitter workforce with a difficult decision.

Big up or quit, that's how the tech entrepreneur's "hardcore" plan can be summed up.

Many have resigned, others had to leave - but those who are still on board should slowly be able to get an idea of ​​what their daily work could look like in the future.

According to media reports, the Twitter boss had beds set up in several Twitter offices in San Francisco.

Motto: Work until you drop?

According to Forbes, Musk seems to be quite serious about the fact that employees should be able to fall straight out of bed and onto their desks.

A picture from an office complex shows a sleeping area with an orange carpet, a wooden bedside table and a wide bed - as well as two armchairs that allow for some socializing in the workplace.

Disrespect or caring?

Possibly, as other media report, citing insiders, the beds should also be reserved for those employees who come to Twitter on business trips - in order to save on hotel accommodation, for example.

One thing is clear: bed and nightcap should be a significant improvement on how many people found a few hours of sleep on Twitter.

The image of a sleeping Twitter employee recently circulated on social media.

She lay next to office chairs with her sleeping bag, sleeping pad and sleeping mask.

Some even openly admitted to sleeping in the office after Musk bought Twitter.

However, "Forbes" also reported, citing an insider, that the employees had not been informed about the new sleeping places.

"It doesn't look good," he is quoted as saying.

"It's another unspoken sign of disrespect." There was no discussion, the beds just showed up.

Musk may have made the calculation without the authorities.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports that the Building Inspectorate is looking into the matter more closely and may want to inspect the offices.

The aim is to ensure that the buildings are also used in accordance with the regulations.

A user had previously complained about the beds – on Twitter, of course.

Musk himself reacted to the report of the examination at least piqued.

He tweeted, "So the city of San Francisco is cracking down on companies that provide beds for tired employees instead of making sure kids are safe from fentanyl." He linked to a report about a baby who recently overdosed on the than drug abused painkiller suffered.

Addressing Mayor London Breed, he asked, "What are your priorities?"
