"I don’t work for Elon anymore… I was at the hospital with my wife and she was giving birth to our first child and Elon’s like I need you in the office…"
Rogan went on to speak about how working for Musk requires dedication and sacrifice and said
"He [Elon Musk] was working 16 hours a day and sleeping on the floor. Well, he demands out of other people too... Maybe you want that, maybe you don’t. And if you don’t, you can’t work there. It’s just that simple. If you want that hop on it… that’s not a life for me. I wouldn’t want that job."
