Elon Musk fired 80% of Twitter (6500 people) and everyone thought that Twitter was doomed.
He was right. Everyone was wrong.
It’s the management masterclass of the decade and every entrepreneur must understand why it worked 🧵:
ORANG LUAR NEGERI KE INDONESIA
"Hello, where are you from?"
"I am from the US."
"What are you going to do here?"
"Holiday."
"Great, you just need to pay IDR 500,000 for Visa on Arrival."
"Here."
"Have a nice holiday."
***
"Hi, you're late to the online meeting."
"Sorry, it's 2 AM here, I have to adjust my schedule."
"Where are you now?"
"I stay in Bali now. It's cheap, the living cost is only a tiny fraction of my salary. I can save A LOT, and I mean A LOOOOT."
"Wow, you don't need work visa for that?"
"I just stay in my room, no one knows that I am working."
"Local tax?"
"No, I am on tourist visa."
***
"Having a nice holiday? You stayed a whole two months."
"Yeah, my visa is almost expired, so I have to leave."
"Kuala Lumpur? Must be another holiday."
"Yes, only for three days, I will be back again after that."

ORANG INDONESIA KE LUAR NEGERI
"Halo mbak, saya perlu urus visa buat ke US."
"Untuk keperluan apa?"
"Saya ada konferensi ilmiah di Boston. Buat S3 saya, wajib hadir presentasi biar papernya bisa terbit."
"Oke ini jadwal yang tersedia."
"Mesti nunggu 2 bulan?"
"Iya mas, penuh soalnya."
"Aduh, mepet ya."
"Coba dulu aja mas. Ini syarat dokumennya."
***
"Kenapa uang tabungannya cuma segini? Mas perlu sekian ratus juta mengendap."
"Saya adanya cuma segini."
"Mas perlu surat pernyataan gak akan kerja di sana."
"Lah, itu surat undangan dari konferensi gak cukup?"
"Gak cukup, harus ada tabungan sama pernyataan. Tiket pulang pergi juga udah harus ada."
"Kalau gak ada gimana?"
"Visanya bisa gak keluar."
***
"Halo, visa Anda ditolak."
"Hah kenapa?"
"Kami gak bisa kasih tahu alasannya."
"Haduh, terus paper konferensi saya gimana?"
"Maaf."

Hello badminton fans.
I have finally taken the plunge and joined the modern world by setting up a Twitter account. Looking forward to another week in Bangkok and commentating on the #ThailandOpen2022.

@worksfess Buka usaha itu bukan berarti sok mau buka usaha. Bertahan di tengah sulitnya pandemi juga bukan mau sok. Tapi sadar bahwa ada pegawai yang bergantung dengan usaha ini. Hak dan kewajiban UMKM-karyawan dilindungi UU, termasuk besarnya upah.
@ryuchagiyaa @LilianL92090469 @sunset_gazing Yaelah, pacarmu perokok aja ga bisa kamu bikin berenti. Apa yg menjadi diri kita itu ga hanya dr ortu. Dan bukan tg jawab ortu menghapus pengaruh org lain dr kita. Stop blaming your parents if you are adult enough to make a decision.
@muthiastp Kalau dalam keyakinan Islam, sebenarnya mereka sudah ditanya kok di alam sebelum dalam perut ibunya. Pertanyaannya semacam: "Yakin lu mau dilahirin?" dijawab "Yes, I'm so excited". Lahir deh. Cuma ya pas lahir & besar, ga inget pernah ngomong gt.
