The “new CEO” of Twitter has been found, and according to billionaire Elon Musk, he is “so much better than that other guy.” Musk introduced the world to his pet dog, Floki.
Musk posted a picture of his Shiba Inu dog sitting on the CEO’s chair. The pet dog is pictured donning a CEO-themed black T-shirt with the Twitter logo. A small laptop and a few papers are seen lying in front of the dog.
Musk tweeted the image and commented, “The new CEO of Twitter is amazing,” adding, “So much better than that other guy!”

On Twitter, the post elicited hilarious responses. I guess he was the only one crazy enough to accept the job, a user remarked.
Yet another user said, “These frames appeal to me more. Perfect for Valentine’s Day.”
Third user posted, “How Floki transitioned from fetching balls to having interns fetch him coffee is incredibly inspiring. When I grow up, I want to be just like him!”
Musk fired chief executive Parag Agrawal in October 2022. To enforce the terms of a takeover agreement that the Tesla CEO had attempted to elude, Mr. Agrawal went to court.
Following his $44 billion takeover of the company in October of last year, he also fired legal policy director Vijaya Gadde and Ned Segal, who is of Indian descent. After that, Musk fired close to half of Twitter’s staff.
He announced in December that he would step down as CEO of Twitter as soon as he found someone “foolish enough to take the job.”
