Lots of "earthy" language that's been beeped out...

Not a great way to treat the people that work for you BUT after what's happened with Covid in your country, fully understandable.

Perhaps some herbal tea would help him deal with such lapses in a less Napoleonic manner.

Just saw this




Here is the audio. He must have learned how to rant from David Miscavige (sorry, I've seen the documentaries)

Just sounds like a locker room football coach in the good old days.

I’m all for strict Covid protocols but that just sounded like a meltdown...not good leadership.

The Tom Cruise that I used to know was the nicest guy in Hollywood but that was in about 1984.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. We have no idea what led up to this (i.e., maybe it's the 20th time he's had to remind people). I think his rant was very specific listing that he's dealing with insurance companies, Hollywood, etc... The last thing he needs is to be shut down (like many other companies) after investing millions.

My question....who's the pee-on that took out their camera and started filming? That's who I'd fire first!

I was thinking the same thing or a platoon sergeant. But more like a platoon sergeant that has no idea what he is talking about and has many more smart people working for him. So he resorts to similar rants to enforce his power/authority.

There is an adage about leadership: if you have to resort to yelling, you have already lost your mantle of authority

What's he afraid of? I was under the impression scientology made bad stuff disappear..
And there he is wearing a worthless vented mask... As if they mattered to begin with...
