Category of Candidate: People who will work for free.
Who? It’s another podcaster!
Lex Fridman hosts a tech podcast called the Lex Fridman Podcast and on Sunday, he volunteered to run Twitter for free. “Let me run Twitter for a bit. No salary. All in,” he tweeted. “Focus on great engineering and increasing the amount of love in the world. Just offering my help in the unlikely case it’s useful.”
Almost immediately, Musk replied, “You must like pain a lot. One catch: you have to invest your life savings in Twitter and it has been in the fast lane to bankruptcy since May. Still want the job?”
That’s not a no.
