Elon Musk has responded to the New York Post article,” Twitter employees using own toilet paper after Elon Musk cuts janitors”.

The report said some employees are bringing in their own toilet paper because no janitors are on hand to replace supplies. Musk has purportedly packed Twitter employees onto two floors while shutting down four others.

Billionaire, Elon Musk tweeted, “BYOTP! Lol, it was true for half a day”, in response to comment of DareW,” Is this true or is it fake news?”

An Overview Of Article

The New York Times recently reported, some Twitter employees are bringing their own toilet paper to work after the company cut back on janitorial services. Twitter has stopped paying rent for several of its offices including its San Francisco headquarters.

Musk’s scramble to save money included a move this month to abruptly fire janitors who worked at the company’s San Francisco headquarters. The cuts came after the janitors had gone on strike for more pay.

The absence of janitors has “left the office in disarray,” with bathrooms that have “grown dirty” and persistent smells of “leftover takeout food and body odor,” the New York Times reported, citing sources familiar with the matter.

Twitter has also asked its employees to work from home since the company has stopped paying rent entirely at its Seattle building. According to the report, the microblogging platform will most likely only have offices in New York City and San Francisco. However, the company is said to have skipped rent at its Bay Area headquarters and San Francisco office. Cleaners and security guards were also laid off at one of the company’s New York offices.

NYT said that Mr  Elon Musk’s “erratic and hands-on leadership style” has alienated some Twitter employees. He has also directed his subordinates to identify employees who have leaked information about the company’s operations to the media. The billionaire is reportedly attempting to cut $500 million in non-labor expenses from Twitter’s budget.
