On a scale of 0 (hiring at Twitter is as easy as possible) to 100 (Twitter can never hire anyone again) how bad is it now that Musk fired an employee in front of millions of users, especially since the employee was calling out obvious bullshit?

Awaiting the lawsuit against him because of the obvious constructive dismissal going on

Who got fired here? I'm presuming it's @EricFrohnhoefer, but his profile says he's "Still @twitter".

When will elon get that this stuff isn't a cool "haha high five bro nice one" moment, and is instead just a sad display of managerial power, akin to sending a dish back to the kitchen in a restaurant.

On what grounds? Most of US is at will employment, so the worst that he's subject to is something like california's WARN act which requires 60 days notice. However, AFAIK the employees are still receiving a paycheck, just that they have nothing to do and are locked out of the company's systems.
