Lol 20k. tell me you’re a musk cuck without… you know the rest.

Tesla doesn't pay more than other places, so I feel like this person just doesn't make much money and $20k is a huge differential to their hourly wage. Otherwise why not choose another arbitrary number like $50k?

At the scales of wages for engineers, project managers, etc, powering these companies, somebody in those positions would be be using a percentage.

20k is 5-15% wage over average wages for most of those job roles and that's easy to find competing offers for and not sell yourself out to overwork yourself if you qualified anyways.
