CEO cut's salary so he can raise workers pay to 70,000/yr has been added as a related post - related requested by Mordhaus.

So the lowest spec new Model S costs about $66000 in the US, and a quick google reveals that Gravity has "100-200" employees.

Even assuming the most employees and the cheapest Tesla, that's still $330 per employee (and probably more).

When was the last time you spent $330 on a gift for your boss? Never, that's when.

So much cringe. I can't handle it. Not so much the people, but the editing. And definitely the cheery acoustic kickstarter music at the end. It hurts.

If I only had a shoulder to cry on........ such as the front passanger side shoulder of a Tesla. I think that would help me a lot

Seriously though, I watched some of the shit that went down after the 70k announcement, and it was pretty freaking awful just how quickly the media moved to demonise him...

You look at CEO's who take huge payments for running companies in to the ground and it doesn't cause much of a reaction. One guy decides to give back to his staff, obviously he's pure evil.

I wish I had a boss like that to work for.
