Senator Tina Smith summed up Elon Musk’s latest move to terrorize and harass federal workers with his most recent email demanding we all tell him what we did last week as “A Dick Boss Move.” And Musk confirmed that this was a dick boss move because he expresses his contempt for all federal workers outloud in an article published by The Independent. Musk states this was a “test” to see if have the mental capacity to respond to one of his emails.

And no, it’s not hyperbole.

Elon Musk said that blanket emails sent to federal employees asking for a response about their weekly accomplishments or risk termination was a test to see if they “had a pulse.”… Less than 24 hours before the deadline, Musk hinted that the emails were simply a rouse to ensure federal employees were “capable of responding” to his correspondence… “This was basically a check to see if the employee had a pulse and was capable of replying to an email,” Musk said. “This mess will get sorted out this week. Lot of people in for a rude awakening and strong dose of reality. They don’t get it yet, but they will.” On Sunday afternoon, Musk also referred to the emails as a “very basic pulse check.” That evening, Musk added that a response was indicative that employees have “two working neurons.”

I already knew that Musk hates workers in general. Look at how he treats his now X employees. If he could replace us all with machines, I’m sure Musk would do that. But he also has a sadistic streak, and Musk would miss the fun of making life miserable for some people.

As for myself, I suspect Musk will assume that I am brain dead. Why? As of this writing, the Census Bureau server has not forwarded me that OPM email. Nothing at all, even though I received those earlier OPM emails. I have contacted my supervisor to see if there is some kind of issue, but so far, I have heard nothing.

No OPM email. No response from me. I’ll probably receive it at the last moment though, and I will have no guidance from my supervisor on what to do either.

But thank you to my DICK BOSS OVERLORD. /s.
