I work a ways underneath him. Structures Test Engineer but some projects he is involved with daily, others not as much. He really likes to be involved on the structures side. Although things have changed, I think we are around 5,000 people, I definitely don't see him as much as I used to. I am employee 500 ish so I have been around for a while.
He used to have an assistant, she left maybe 1.5-2 years ago. Not sure if he got another one, but she was more personal assistant style from what I saw, managing schedules, lunch, meals, travel etc. He has to have something now as things have only got more crazy with Tesla and Space X but I honestly don't know what anymore. Like I said, place is crazy now. I used to know a huge majority, now not so much.
The way he strikes me is like this, my thinking (even for my age ) is not about just today or tomorrow, I think about 5 years from now and 10 years from now. I try to live and make life go the way I want it to in the future not only living for the moment. I worry about things out to the 10 year mark or so and thats it. He seems to look at 10-50 years in the future. He doesn't say "IF" we will get to mars we can do whatever, he says "WHEN" we get to mars we will do whatever. There is no doubt in his mind that we will get there. So he thinks about what we will do when we get there, I am still thinking how will we ever get there.
And case and point the reason he makes the calls, the water landings we have made and the "technique" we have used sounded to me like an absolute crap shoot that would never work ... well I am eating my words on that one and I don't mind eating my words either, my options are worth more money now
We started taking bets as to where it would land in relation to the barge yesterday so far the two bets that are written down both have it landing on the barge at least
