Then Musk said he would have to slash 10% of the workforce because of the current situation of the US economy.  Later, however, he retracted his workforce-related statement and said the company&#8217;s total workforce will rise in the coming year.  While all these indicate that a lot is happening in Tesla while Musk is in the middle of a Twitter deal, a spoof article claimed Tesla employees&#8217; cars will now drive them to work against their will. <strong>Also Read: Elon Musk&#8217;s ultimatum to Tesla employees: &#8216;Return to office or &#8230;&#8217;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed_div ht-twitter-embed\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">My diabolical plan is coming together!<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk\/status\/1534596916297617410?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">June 8, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;My diabolical plan is coming together!&#8221;  Elon Musk replied and the tweet went viral in no time, as many social media users are not sure whether it&#8217;s true or just a joke.<\/p>\n<p>The article is a spoof article published by The Babylon Bee, a satire website which only publishes satire articles.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed_div ht-twitter-embed\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\ude02 glad all my employees bought teslas!
