@arstechnica This company seems to have competent management. I hope those severance payments and signing bonuses are juicy.

@georgetakei My boss taught me a another way - right in the middle of a word, you silently push down the button to end the call. Then talk a walk outside.

t leaves them in a mixed emotional state because they usually want to continue the argument, but you never pick up if they call you back. Either that or they sit there forever waiting for you to call back.

Both approaches feel good, but the one above screws with the other person's state of mind as a bonus.

@arstechnica 56 Billion in pay? It seems to me they could cut the price of a car a wee bit. But, I guess he wants to hand the whole market to Asia.

Let's look at this. With this salary, they could cut the price of a million Teslas by $56,000.
