The person I most feel sorry for is Linda Yaccarino, CEO and head of advertising at X. She was sitting in the audience when he did this. Imagine how awkward her near-term conversations with advertisers who were with X as of last week will be.

She signed up for it; I mean it's not like it was a secret what he's like.

Yaccarino was apparently at NBC for 12 years. This leads me to suspect that 30 Rock was a documentary.

"As the new Twitter CEO, Linda Yaccarino is slated to make around $6 million per annum"

Probably adequate to put up with this for a bit.

X/twitter recently hired her son too. Seems like the whole family is out for the smash-n-grab.

Who would ever have thought that the CEO's son was the best person for the job?! What a gratifying coincidence.

I felt this way at one point, but after a certain point of her covering for his erratic behavior it’s just enabling and collecting a paycheck.

I’d have quit months ago.

TheCleric says >"I’d have quit months ago."<

But no one gave you the chance. Why not, pray tell, since you were by far the better choice?8-))

Those emoticons are like a hilarious and alarming comorbidity of the personality required to make the posts you're making. NB: I love the posts you're making.

Why? It's not like she was at Twitter when Musk bought it. She knew what she was signing up for. If she didn't, she's a moron. I feel sorry for all the H1B engineers getting the short end of the deal now that the tech job market is shit. Linda is going to be fine.

[renegade-otter]

Uh. It's not like she suddenly found herself in the middle of this nonsense like those H1-B employees. She explicitly chose to be part of the shitshow. She is the person requiring the LEAST sympathy here.
