Now Elon Musk asks if 'w' should be deleted from Twitter - without no as an answer - in latest poll hours after holding vote on if social media giant's HQ should become a homeless shelter because 'no one turns up anyway'

•   In the first post, the majority shareholder took aim at Twitter's remote working policies, saying he came up with the plan 'since no one shows up anyway'

•   So far, 91.1 percent of more than 923,459 respondents voted in favor of the plan

•   It comes weeks after Twitter reopened its offices March 15, with remote work remaining an option

•   The second post from the Tesla CEO, known for social media antics, saw him give two options about deleting 'w', 'yes' or 'of course'

•   In a statement last month, Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal said he would be honoring a pandemic policy that said staffers could work remotely 'forever' if they choose

•   Musk, 50, purchased a 9.2 percent stake in the social media giant earlier this week and was named to the company's board of directors

New majority Twitter shareholder Elon Musk issued several polls to his millions of followers on the social media platform on Saturday.

The outspoken Tesla CEO, known for his social media antics, initially asked if he should transform the company's Silicon Valley headquarters into a homeless shelter, before suggesting the removal of the letter 'w' in Twitter.

In the first post, Musk - who purchased a 9.2 percent stake in the social media giant earlier this week and was subsequently named to the company's board of directors - seemingly took aim at the company's lax remote working policies, saying he came up with the plan 'since no one shows up anyway.'

So far, the results of the 24-hour poll, posted at 9:30 PM ET by the billionaire businessman, suggests overwhelming support for the prospective undertaking - with 91.1 percent of more than 923,459 respondents voting in favor of the plan.

The second tweet about deleting 'w' saw Musk give two options without no as an answer, with 55.8 percent saying 'yes' and 44.2 percent 'of course' of 445,158 votes to-date.

It comes weeks after Twitter brass - who offered staffers the option of working from home 'forever' during the pandemic - reopened its offices March 15, with remote work remaining an option for staffers.
