CNN reached out to Twitter for comment on the status of the severance package for the former employees in the Ghana office but received an automated response – a poop emoji. It’s unclear whether Twitter still has a media relations department.
Unclear?
the elon special
Spez may idolize Elon, guess who Elon idolizes?
Twitter HR: Twitter Africa
Elon: What is that?
Twitter HR: You know, squirrely looking branch of Twitter headquartered in the continent where you were born, mumbles a lot.
Elon: Oh, yeah.
Twitter HR: Yeah, we can't actually find a record of them being a current branch of Twitter here. We looked into it more deeply and we found that apparently what happened is that Twitter Africa was laid off five months ago and no one ever told them, but through some kind of glitch in the payroll department, they still get paychecks. So we just went ahead and fixed the glitch.
Elon: Great. So um, Twitter Africa has been let go?
Twitter HR: Well just a second there, sir. We uh, we fixed the glitch. So they won't be receiving paychecks anymore, so it will just work itself out naturally. We always like to avoid confrontation, whenever possible. Problem solved from your end.
Unfortunate to see for the employees.
