"I'm for going back to work, but only if it is safe for me, my family, coworkers," said one production employee at Tesla's Fremont, California, car factory. "I don't feel like I'm being forced to stay home or that my freedom has been taken away. It's for the good of California."
"I don't trust Tesla in keeping workers safe," they added. "It's always been about building cars and side-stepping workers' safety. Safety has never been the number-one priority at Tesla."
"He's a rich, arrogant guy who cares about nothing but his money," said an assembly-line worker at the Fremont factory. "The comments he makes are dumb, and I don't think he thinks things over before he says them."
"With the new antibody test results coming out, I agree with him," a vehicle-service employee said. "Let the people choose if they want to stay home. This isn't as dangerous as we originally thought, and the BS arrests that have been made in public areas where the people are nowhere near anyone else just fuels the fire."
According to the San Francisco Bay Area NBC affiliate, KNTV, police have made at least 59 arrests while enforcing the region's stay-at-home order.
"Elon's behavior and statements, as well as tweets, are embarrassing and sad," said a production employee at the Fremont factory. "This is extremely scary for employees that want to protect loved ones while the CEO doesn't care and actively protests against the government whose actions have been keeping our families safe!"
