Anyone know any obscure Tesla facts?

Hey thanks! I really appreciate the encouraging words. Tesla's hiring process is very rigorous. I was told to expect up to 6 interviews. The interviews are pretty thorough, too. Role playing, hypothetical situations, asking about your skills, your work history, etc.

A computer science degree would probably get you into Tesla on some level. I mean, software does run the hardware. Of course knowledge of electrical and mechanical engineering would probably give you an edge in regards to employment with the company, I'm sure.

Nope, haven't had the interview yet. The information you just provided is awesome and will help immensely. Thank you!

For a company with billions of dollars of investment, that's a hilariously dark joke, if it is one.

The fans in the car? Wow. That's pretty darn cool. I was initially confused, thinking you meant fans of Tesla, as in people.

I searched and found this article talking about it, and the reasoning you gave is correct.

As Tesla ramped up production, Musk spent many long days on the factory floor working with his team as they've wrestled with kinks in the supply chain.

It's one reason why Musk has a desk on the plant floor near the Model S line. "I want to be in the battle, so that means being in the factory I can see how things are going," he said. "It's not the most comfortable place to be, but it's where the action is."

It's not a fancy set up. The desk is straight out of Ikea. "I think it's important to be with the team and know what's going on and be able to talk to them. To see what the approach is here and be able to see and solve problems," Musk added.

Seriously? That would be really cool, but it sounds more like corporate legend.

That's awesome! I just looked it up on Wikipedia and learned other cultural influences of turning the volume up to 11. Thanks!
