Bedrooms made for employees in Twitter office

Twitter's new boss Elon Musk has converted some office space at the company's San Francisco headquarters into bedrooms, believed to be for tired staff members who are part of his new "hardcore" work ethic. The work has been done for them.

This has attracted the attention of not only social media users but also the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection, which has launched an investigation into the firm as the building is only registered as a commercial one.

Now in the midst of this discussion, pictures of beds, futon couches and sofas covered with sheets and pillows have surfaced online.

Sharing on Twitter, James Clayton said that these pictures were taken by the BBC, showing temporary bedrooms with minimal furniture.

Clayton wrote in the caption of the post, "The BBC has taken pictures of inside Twitter - rooms that have been converted into bedrooms for employees to sleep. The city of San Francisco is investigating this because it is a commercial building."

However, as soon as it was reported that Elon Musk had converted the office into a bedroom, city officials began investigating the matter.

"We need to make sure the building is being used," Patrick Hannan, the department's communications director, said in a statement, adding, "There are different building code requirements for residential buildings that have short-term stays."

Following news of the investigation, the Twitter boss reacted sharply, criticizing San Francisco Mayor London Breed, saying the company was being unfairly attacked for "providing beds for tired workers". was.

Along with the tweet, Musk attached a recent Chronicle report about the near death of a child after allegedly accidentally ingesting fentanyl at a San Francisco playground.

Notably, since the tech billionaire took over Twitter last month, he has laid off nearly 50% of its workforce, ended the work-from-home policy and introduced longer working hours.
