I'm not sure if he realizes how stupid that makes him sound

Did... did he actually say this? I knew this guy was full of it, but that's a whole other level.

I work in manufacturing industry as a production planner. Although I am in a central position, from everything that happens on the factory floor to make a complete product, I know surprisingly little. There are so mind bogglingly many little details in the process. That's why there are so fucking many of us here.

From where I'm sitting, the higher you go on the management ladder more clueless people are about the actual manufacturing process. They don't need to know to do their job. They just need to listen when somebody who knows tells them the abbreviated version when necessary.

Elon does not appear to be a listener.

He's just a pompous narcissist or possibly a full blown psycho. Not sure what his tallent is.

I wouldn’t expect anything less of Phony Stark.

"At this point, I think I pay enough talented people who know things to make it look like I actually know things so I can focus on acting like a fool on social media platforms and interviews."

When I was a kid my parents wouldn't let me make my own pinewood derby car, even though I had done one already without issue the previous year. My dad then proceeded to put a 1/2" drill bit through his hand while doing it for me. I always found that kind of funny.

I needed to find the source to hear the tone of that statement for myself - it's from an interview from 2022 (link is timestamped):

Mr. Musk could manufacture himself into a fine powder.

This right here is the kind of blind confidence someone smart and self aware could never fake. You have to be so far up your own ass or a page strait out of the dsm to say some shit like this.

Been around the orange so long he thinks he can lie and get away with it too

I'd love to see his engineering drawings.

Hope it doesn't sound arrogant when I say that I am the greatest man in the world.

Maybe manufacturing stock manipulations, nothing tangible.

Shame. Shame upon you!
