Twitter must update permit in order to legalize bedrooms at its headquarters

SAN FRANCISCO — San Francisco building inspectors have given Twitter’s construction contractor two weeks to submit a corrected building use permit if the social media company wants to keep using two conference rooms as bedrooms at its headquarters.

The correction notice issued Monday from San Francisco’s Department of Building Inspection to Hathaway Dinwiddie Construction Company asks the contractor to correctly label conference rooms as sleeping areas in a floor plan, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Wednesday.

The city launched an investigation in December after Forbes reported on the beds, prompting owner Elon Musk to lash out at San Francisco Mayor London Breed, even though there is no evidence she was involved in the inspection.

“So city of SF attacks companies providing beds for tired employees instead of making sure kids are safe from fentanyl. Where are your priorities @LondonBreed!?” Musk posted on Twitter, referring to a story about a baby’s reported fentanyl overdose.

Even in the most liberal of areas, it's usually means you get sentenced to paperwork.

Remember how in high school you had to write sentences on the board?
