Musk's two cousins joined Twitter to complete the staff.

According to reports in the morning of December 8, Beijing time, Elon Elon Musk has hired two relatives to work at Twitter's headquarters in San Francisco, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Two of his cousins, James Musk and Andrew Musk, both sons of the billionaire uncle, have now become full-time Twitter employees.

According to an insider, Andrew Musk works on software engineering projects, while James Musk is more of a "handyman" who helps Elon Musk with various tasks.

In addition, the billionaire has brought some employees of his other companies to Twitter, including engineers from Tesla and The Boring Company.

Others include his lawyer, Alex Spiro, and his right-hand man, Jared Birchall, who runs Mr Musk's family office, Excession. The men were one of Musk's cronies who had been sleeping at Twitter headquarters after Musk issued a "hard core" ultimatum and some offices at Twitter headquarters were converted into bedrooms.
