Coach return policy

Tesla Inc Chief Executive Elon Musk has asked employees to return to the office or leave the company, according to an email sent to employees and seen by Reuters. "Everyone at Tesla is required to spend a minimum of 40 hours in the office per week," Musk wrote in the email sent on Tuesday night. "If you don't show up, we will assume you have resigned." "The more senior you are, the more visible must be your presence," Musk wrote. "That is why I lived in the factory so much - so that those on the line could see me working alongside them. If I had not done that, Tesla would long ago have gone bankrupt." Two sources confirmed the authenticity of the email reviewed by Reuters. Tesla did not respond to a request for comment. Major tech firms in Silicon Valley do not require workers to return to the office full-time, in the face of resistance from some workers and a resurgence of coronavirus cases in California. Tesla has moved its headquarters to Austin, Texas, but has its … [Read more...] about Elon Musk Tells Tesla Staff: Return To Office Or Leave

SEATTLE - There was a line waiting for Alysha Clark as the Mystics finished their shoot-around Thursday morning at Climate Pledge Arena. The Seattle Storm walked onto the court for its session and many Storm players - Sue Bird, Breanna Stewart, Jewell Loyd, among others - made a beeline to hug their former teammate. Clark was a key part of a Seattle team that won a pair of WNBA titles, and Thursday marked her first time in the arena wearing a visitor's jersey after signing with the Mystics before the 2021 season. The last game she played for Seattle was the title-clinching Game 3 against the Las Vegas Aces in 2020, a season when she was a unanimous selection to the WNBA's All-Defensive first team. "I don't overthink it too much because it takes you out of the moment," the forward said. "I'm here to play a basketball game. I'm here to win a basketball game. Everything outside of that is just . . . is what it is. These are friends for life. You come across that in any stage in … [Read more...] about Mystics’ Alysha Clark returns to Seattle, the city that launched her career

All Blacks head coach Ian Foster tested positive for Covid ahead of the first Ireland Test WELLINGTON: New Zealand's preparations for the first Test against Ireland were thrown into disarray Monday after head coach Ian Foster, his assistant John Plumtree and two players tested positive for Covid-19. Foster and Plumtree are undergoing home isolation while infected players David Havili and Jack Goodhue -- who are both specialist midfield backs -- have not joined the squad in Auckland ahead of Saturday's series opener. Braydon Ennor, who has played four Tests and is a teammate of Havili and Goodhue on Super Rugby Pacific champions the Canterbury Crusaders, was called in as cover. New Zealand regulations require Covid-positive patients to undergo seven days of home isolation from when they first notice symptoms. This potentially rules experienced pair Foster and Plumtree out of attending the Test at Eden Park, although it is unclear when their isolation periods began. Foster … [Read more...] about All Blacks squad hit by Covid ahead of first Ireland Test

A former Marine slated to lead Friendswood's Fourth of July parade backed out Thursday after a coordinated campaign to remove her as grand marshal led to threats of violence against her and her family, the city's parks department announced. Haley Carter, who also chairs Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner's Commission Against Gun Violence, "voluntarily stepped down," she said, after failed congressional hopeful , former RV salesman and conservative talk show host Jesse Kelly sicced his hundreds of thousands of Twitter followers on her and her family Wednesday. Kelly said he took exception to Carter's political views and even posted a photo of her child in an effort to intimidate Friendswood officials into canceling her inclusion in the parade. After the city announced Carter was receiving threats of violence, Kelly celebrated, saying "UPDATE: She's gone" and declaring his actions as part of "The New Right," described by Vanity Fair's James Pogue as "a project to overthrow the … [Read more...] about Former Marine steps down as July 4 parade grand marshal of Texas town after threats of violence

WASHINGTON — The booing didn’t bother him. U.S. Sen. John Cornyn , who was viciously jeered by hundreds of Texas Republicans at the party convention in Houston this month, said he had an inkling that might happen given his high-profile role negotiating the Senate’s bipartisan gun legislation. But the visceral intraparty criticism didn’t affect the final product — six days later, the Senate passed the most significant gun safety bill in a generation — the contours of which did not dramatically change from how it was originally presented to the American public a week before. Calling it “an unpleasant experience,” Cornyn said he was “not discouraged at all” by the heckling from his home state. “I showed up knowing that it might happen the way it did, thinking that maybe some people would actually listen,” he said in an interview with reporters on Monday. “Unfortunately, the people who wanted to listen could not hear because of those who were shutting down any kind of … [Read more...] about ‘This was fundamentally important’: John Cornyn says gun deal shows U.S. Senate can still function

Friday’s Real Time With Bill Maher was the last episode to air before the show takes a month-long break. (It’ll return on July 29.) Given the week’s Supreme Court decisions, Maher and his guests had no shortage of topics to choose from — but the overall effect was more understated than one might expect. Maher addressed the way that the aforementioned legal rulings represented a break from the status quo many Americans had thought would never change. From there, he spoke about considering returning to his running “I know why you’re happy” gag, but commented that it wasn’t the week for it. “If you’re keeping score at home, it’s Guns 1, Women 0,” he said. And from there, Maher talked about Trump’s influence lingering after he left office. “He’s like a fart with bad hair,” said Maher. Maher went on to discuss Clarence Thomas’s concurring opinion and the continuing revelations from the January 6 hearings. Perhaps the most charged moment happened when Maher alluded to the testimony … [Read more...] about Bill Maher Addressed an Eventful Political Week on “Real Time”

(Photo: Somchai Poomlard) Leading opposition party Pheu Thai has promised not to sit on its laurels after an opinion poll showed Paetongtarn "Ung Ing" Shinawatra was the people’s choice for prime minister by a considerable margin. The survey by the National Institute of Development Administration (Nida) showed the youngest daughter of former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra had the support of 25.28% of respondents , followed by 13.24% for Move Forward leader Pita Limjaroenrat. Current prime minister Prayut Chan-o-cha had just 11.68%, while 18.68% said no-one is suitable for the post. The Pheu Thai and Move Forward parties together command the support of more than half the population, according to the opinion poll. Palang Pracharath came third with just 7.00%, followed by 6.32% for the Democrat Party. … [Read more...] about Pheu Thai vows no complacency after opinion poll victory
