Musk hired spies to surveil his critics and girlfriend.

Highlights:

"One of those critics is Vernon Unsworth, who sued Musk in 2018 for calling him a "pedo guy" on Twitter. A new Tortoise investigation reveals that the scale of surveillance used against Unsworth was greater than previously known: Musk used at least two sets of private investigators, both of which used deception to try to gather information."

"Musk deployed private investigators to follow a Tesla employee "24 hours a day". A former security operative at Tesla alleges the company also hacked into the employee's phone. Other whistleblowers also allege that they were followed."

"Unbeknownst to Unsworth, Musk's tam then paid about $50,000 to a private investigator called James Howard-Higgins to dig up dirt on Unsworth. Howard-Higgins promised that he would go through Unsworth's bins, pose as a charity worker to get information, and infiltrate his partner's Facebook page.

No due diligence. A Google search would have revealed that Howard-Higgins was a fraudster, jailed in 2016 for stealing from his own company. As the US trial, which Musk won by portraying his Twitter comments as a joke, his team portrayed Howard-Higgins as a one-off. In fact another investigation firm called Orion was also tasked with getting information on Unsworth. Emails show how Orion emailed one of Unsworth's friends, telling him, incorrectly, that they were "working on behalf of Vernon"."

"Musk allegedly placed his former partner Amber Heard under surveillance in Australia having become suspicious that she was cheating on him.

Around the same time a local newspaper received an anonymous tip that an Aussie Rules footballer was "spending many nights at Amber Heard's house" and "leaving early in the morning looking like the cat that swallowed the canary".

The paper traced the message to SpaceX, one of Musk's companies.

When one of its reporters spoke to Musk, he accepted that someone close to him had sent the tip but claimed it was done without his knowledge.

"My personal belief is that [Musk] definitely sent it," says the reporter, Sally Coates."

I've seen other outlets claim that Musk used infrared technology to spy on Heard's home and detect any movement inside, but can't confirm this from a source I consider credible.

Anyway, reminder that Muskrat is a serial domestic abuser and sexual predator as well as a fascist, that his supposed support for "free speech" (as always with the Right) just means "freedom for me to say whatever I want with no consequences, and no one else has freedom to disagree with or criticize me", and that how he conducts himself in his private life and in his businesses is mirrored in his goals for society as a whole.

Also, that this "genius" is so incompetent that he couldn't even use Google for two minutes before hiring a convicted con man.

(Addendum: I know a lot of people have accused Tortoise Media of being part of some grand Right-wing/transphobic conspiracy, but so far as I've found that's mostly desperate Neil Gaiman fans trying to make out that the accusations against him by multiple unconnected women, that he partly admitted to and others in the industry corroborated, are a vast Conservative conspiracy to frame him for being pro-trans. In other words- ridiculous and misogynist. Tortoise has some credibility issues of being fairly new, without much of an established track record and, like many major media outlets, having big business money behind it. But also, far Right psy-op outlets probably aren't inclined to write detailed exposes on Elon Musk and the Saudi Royals.)

Where do people get paid 13th or 14th times per year? Source.

Here, all workers get their yearly wage divided by 14th. Each month, they get paid 1 month's wages, but there are two moments of the year where they get paid 2 months worth of wages at once.

According to the law, one of these has to be before Christmas holidays. The second one can be negotiated between the workers and the business, but in practise it's in June (at the beginning of summer holidays).

The countries coloured in gray don't have a 13th/14th month salary, but some like the UK may have other kinds of end-of-the-year bonus for some jobs.

you've heard of "quiet quitting," now I'd like to introduce you to the next level, The French Work Ethic:

Do exactly what you're paid for and nothing more

Absolutely refuse to be available to contact when you're off the clock

Never prioritize work over your own health, wellbeing, or family because that would be insane, it's just a job.

Have a little glass of wine

Take as long as you feel like for lunch

Deeply understand that work doesn't matter

Make sure your boss knows they're always your second priority ❤️

Why Employers should reconsider inclusion of arbitration clauses in all their employment contracts:

Where I live (BC, Canada), a statutory holiday (of which there are currently 11 in a year) means that either a) you work that day, earning time-and-a-half, and also earn a regular day's wages aside from that, or b) you don't work that day, and get a regular day's wages instead.

One of the most personal, saddest things about living in America is the summertime.

There is 0 reason for American adults not to have a summer break. I can only say this with a full throat so loud, but other countries have policies and laws that give adults summertime.

It is not a joke to say France is kind of shutdown for August. There are over a dozen countries that have enough mandatory, legally required leave available to take an entire month off, or more. PLUS mandatory PAID holidays.

It's Brazil and Russia (ooh scary BRIC countries outgrowing the US and coming for us). India AND China give up to 2 weeks mandatory vacation leave, plus sick leave on top.

It's Afghanistan (20 days). It's Angola (22). It's Argentina(25) and Armenia (25) and Australia (20). It's Cambodia (technically unlimited; you can eventually get 15 or 17 days per month vacation).

That us on top of mandatory PAID public holidays. Cambodia can somehow manage 27 mandatory paid holidays plus upwards of 18 vacation days per year and going up from there, and we in the US can't even manage mandatory paid holidays.

We don't even get paid on Christmas and Memorial Day. And even trying to convince some people, let alone politicians, that everyone should get paid on Christmas is unfair to compare to pulling teeth.

Please. Please. I want to have a better life. I want you to have a better life.

I want you to not miss Summer Break. Because France and Cambodia don't.

Industrial Dispute vs. Individual Dispute as per the Industrial Disputes Act (IDA), 1947

Industrial Dispute Definition: Section 2(k) of the IDA defines an industrial dispute as “any dispute or difference between employers and employers, or between employers and workmen, or between workmen and workmen, which is connected with the employment or non-employment or the terms of employment or with the conditions of labour of any person.” Industrial Dispute Characteristics: Collective…

"C.C.F. ASKS LABOR BOARD TO MAKE RADICAL CHANGES," Toronto Star. May 14, 1943. Page 32. ----- Claim Machinery for Administering Labor Legislation Totally Inadequate --- BRIEF SUBMITTED ---- Ottawa, May 14 (CP) - The C.C.F. today asked the national war labor board to endorse an overall program of labor legislation. A brief prepared for submission to the board by two C.C.F. members of parliament, Clarence Gillis, Cape Breton South, and Angus MacInnis, Vancouver East, and the national secretary, David Lewis, said present machinery for administering labor legislation is totally inadequate and "has been used with little imagination and understanding."

The brief said there was "urgent need" for a legislative program which will:

1. Guarantee the right to organize and make it a punishable offence for employers to interfere with organization.

Provide. "expeditious and uniform" machinery for determining which of two or more bona fide bargaining agencies had the support of a majority of the employees concerned.

Exclude company unions from any status under the law.

4. Make union recognition and collective bargaining compulsory.

Set up an appropriate body, like the present war labor board, for the peaceful settlement of labor-management disputes.

Stabilization of Wages The brief also recommended revision of wage stabilization regulations to enable an upward adjustment of "all inadequate wages anywhere in Canada." Amendment should also be made to establish an adequate wage level up to which workers would be free to bargain for a rise in wages without being required to justify the increase within the terms of the order.

"We are convinced that the great majority of the stoppages of work could have been avoided if employers and the government had realized that collective bargaining is a necessary factor in 20th century industrial production," the brief said. "Very few comparable countries are as backward as Canada in the matter of labor legislation...

"Every person capable of thought who does not belong intellectually to the middle ages, recognizes that unionism is not merely an instrument for the protection of the workers but is also an indispensable part of the democratic process as a whole."

Attack C.M.A. Brief The C.C.F. said the Canadian Manufacturers' association brief, presented earlier, has "a ring of antagonism toward union organization." "Employers seem to be developing new and numerous devices in their determination to frustrate the growth of unionism," the C.C.F. continued. ""The most recent appears to be a condition by employers that they will become party to collective agreements only if the negotiating committee under the agreement be elected anew by all employees in the plant, irrespective of union membership.

"It is our belief that this anti-union attitude might by now have been broken down by the developing democracy in Canada and by public opinion, were it not for the encouragement which it has received from the acts of government-owned or government-controlled industry.

"Arising out of war legislation, there have accumulated a multitude of laws and a pyramid of machinery which cause unnecessary confusion," the brief said. "A consolidation and simplification of all of these would be of considerable numerous orders now applying to assistance.

Adequate representation of workers on all appropriate war boards and committees should be provided.

There had been failure to consult labor in matters which vitally concerned it and this was true at the present time in industrial layoffs resulting from changes in production program, the brief said.

In briefs yesterday, the Canadian Construction association and the weekly newspaper the Canadian Tribune, recommended adoption of a simplified labor code to replace numerous orders now applying to labor matters.

The employees' association of Canadian Car and Foundry Co. Ltd., Montreal, expressed support of "independent" unions and asked for legislation to assure their protection against invasion by outside union organizations.
