Elon’s “extremely hardcore” toxic work culture means people are forced to take Adderall without a prescription to meet their workload. Just ask SpaceX employees.
"Some SpaceX workers resorted to taking Adderall to keep up with the pace of work at the company’s launch facility, and others found themselves falling asleep in the bathroom during long workweeks, a recent Reuters investigation found.
“Travis Carson, a former SpaceX worker at the company’s facility in Brownsville, Texas, told Reuters some workers took Adderall — a stimulant designed to help people with ADHD improve their focus and concentration levels — without a prescription to keep up with the pace of work.”
What a nightmare!

@ajsadauskas @technology Imagine being in a space capsule for months with this guy, and then have him pull this on you once you are stuck on Mars and can’t do anything about it. Can’t quit. Can’t really protest. You’ll depend on him for survival. It would be a form of slavery. I don’t believe people will respond well to a harsh leader for what will seem to them like an eternity of time.
I can totally recall a story that explored this idea already.
