My mom is 83. Drives her 2017 Model S like she’s qualifying for Le Mans — fast, confident, zero hesitation. I live 4 hours away and every time I see her location dot moving on my phone I nervously wait for to get home.
@TechOperator So many learning lessons in this post. Being young does not make you stupid, experience and years make you smart. She did great. I have a daughter too, and that worries me.
This is happening everywhere. In restaurants, we have to do more with less just to survive. The restaurant business is one of the toughest out there. Sales are incredibly fleeting — one week you’re slammed and profitable, the next you’re down 15% for no obvious reason and losing money. Your two biggest expenses, labor and food, are completely perishable. Once that shift is over or that product spoils, it’s gone forever. You can have staff ready, but if the customers don’t show up, you’ve produced nothing. It’s the ultimate “just-in-time” business — except when sales don’t materialize, you simply run at a loss. There’s only so much silverware you can roll and cleaning you can do.
Do not even ask me about when it rains on a weekend in California!
@MichaelDell How about struggle for years build something better and more desirable than anything else and then 10 years later you are an overnight success!
@Joscocok@Tesla Nope, I will drive it till I cannot. I can never drive another car without FSD! I believe they will have some really interesting models soon.
@TeamTrump47 If you sold a product with insatiable demand you would sell that product to the person who will pay the most. There is insatiable demand for oil, the market sets the price. Soon there is going to be more oil than demand due to supply rising so the price will fall.
@TeslaBoomerPapa You do not start production when you are a year away from needing the cyber cabs. What are they going to do in 6 months when they have the capability of making 20,000 cars per day?
