That’s how his Department Of Government Efficiency will save billions.
Seems aligned with Trump habit of shafting his sub-contractors.
Paying bills is for poor people. Rich people don’t need to do that. How would they stay rich?
Never give these rich assholes credit unless there is an airtight contract for payment.
There is no such thing as an airtight contract when dealing with Musk. He simply ignores it until you sue.
Same thing as Trump.
Doesn’t matter how perfect your contract is, as long as they can afford to fight the lawsuit longer than you you’re gonna lose.
You’d think people would learn to not contract with these assholes at all.
You just have to work in legal costs to anything you do. Call it an asshole tax
Or you just…stop providing the service?
“The components used to build the products are largely unique to the products, resulting in long lead times for ordering such component parts from suppliers,” and Twitter must give “written approval for Wiwynn to purchase the necessary components to manufacture the customer products…and expressly assumed liabilities for the procurement costs.”
So basically they were bespoke servers that are great for Twitter, custom designed, and definitely aren’t easy to just resell elsewhere, so because Twitter isn’t paying, the IT company is eating the loss right now
By keeping them on, they’re continuing to incurr expenses, as well as assuring any future “customers” that they can feel free to walk all over them.
It sounds like in this transaction they are purely a hardware provider, they shipped the bespoke hardware to Twitter based on twitters order, musk took over, and is now refusing to pay them because he doesn’t want whatever the hardware is after having gutted Twitter, and they haven’t been paid
Never give these rich assholes credit
unless there is an airtight contract for payment.Cash on delivery is extremely rare in the business world, especially when dealing with enterprise customers. While I have no doubt many of Twitter’s vendors have recently switched to COD, that is not the norm.
These types of relationships typically work on anywhere from 30 to 90 day terms, depending on the vendor, client, and their history.
That might be true, but I think the point is that maybe it shouldn’t be rare (especially when dealing with these guys).
They should seize and sell his private jet.
You misspelled “harvest” and “organs”.
Harvest his private organs? No one wants those.
Turn off the servers
legally, you can’t. It’s actually worse.
“Your Honor, the board voted to pay this guy a salary of nearly that amount - per day. If it would please the court, fuck this guy and the board and please make them pay their bills.”
“Your honor, rather than pay his outstanding debts, this shiftless f***wit used 75 million dollars to fund a SuperPAC to bother people at their homes for the benefit of the Trump campaign.”
Didn’t he just donate 75 mil towards fascism? But can’t pay his bills…
This is the efficiency of the market at work.
Do the world a favor and repossess that shit.
Not paying bills is an ego trip for these scumbags. Maybe it’s the only way they can get an erection.
Move fast and don’t pay your bills
Look, I hate Musk as well, but I’m not seeing their side of the story here. That’s what courts are for.
You keep your “voice of reason” out of my indignant rage, thank you very much ;-)
