    Interesting. So is Tesla fucking up so bad that they don’t even have vendors that know how to hide the fucked up job they do? Or do they have vendor’s that may also be to blame?

      I would imagine it was either a whistleblower or someone from a regulation agency came by and noticed. Tesla management found out, said “oopsie”, rubbed their hands and followed with “we can grow through this experience”. These companies have a budget for fuck ups.

      At one point of my life, I helped audit/ book keep for a fortune100 and boy do people not care. I have seen some places rack up hundreds of thousands of dollars in bills because they had only 1 person managing that. They paid their bills through a personal credit card so they can get the points from their bank. Really illegal stuff. They got fired for sure but I’m just saying it happens.
