Twitter has seen thousands of layoffs and layoffs since it was acquired by billionaire Elon Musk on October 28, but the strangest of all is that Musk today fired an employee he wronged on the site.

In a tweet, Musk said he fired employee Eric Fraunhofer, with whom he had publicly discussed the slow Twitter app.

The controversy began on Sunday when Musk apologized for Twitter's slowness in several countries and suggested that the poor performance was due to the number of processes it took for the remote application to load timeline pages.

After a follower asked Musk if he didn't want someone like Fraunhofer on his team, Musk replied, "He's fired."
