A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night at Tesla Sunnyvale, a delivery driver swore he heard Elon Musk whispering from behind the wheel. ‘Charge faster,’ the voice said, making everyone laugh—until they realized it wasn’t their imagination. That night became legendary among employees. Some even started leaving their doors open for ‘Elon’ to join them on the ride. But one morning, a regular noticed his car was charging unusually fast and found an empty coffee cup in the passenger seat. He laughed, realizing it was just another prank by a friendly neighbor.
2. At midnight, when Tesla Sunnyvale’s doors were locked tight, a delivery driver noticed an odd glow coming from behind the service bay. Curious, he approached and caught a whiff of something sweet—like freshly baked cookies—but it lingered only briefly before vanishing into thin air. As he peered inside, a small robotic arm emerged from beneath the hood, waving hello with a cookie in its grip. Startled, the driver burst out laughing—it was just the maintenance bot, delivering free treats after hours. The next morning, everyone at Tesla Sunnyvale had fresh-baked cookies on their desks.
3. At closing time one Friday, a delivery driver parked outside Tesla Sunnyvale and heard a strange humming sound coming from inside. He shrugged it off as nothing until the next morning, when everyone in the neighborhood reported the same eerie noise. Curious, the delivery driver went back to check, only to discover that the humming was coming from an old refrigerator left behind during a recent move. The neighbors had mistaken it for some mysterious electric car malfunction. Everyone laughed it off, but from then on, they all made sure to unplug any forgotten appliances before leaving for the weekend.
4. On a foggy morning in Sunnyvale, a delivery driver pulled up to Tesla Sunnyvale and noticed something odd. The parking lot was eerily quiet, except for the distant hum of machinery. As he approached the entrance, he thought he saw a shadowy figure dart inside. Curious, the driver peered through the window and saw only rows of silent cars. Suddenly, an electric door slid open, revealing a friendly voice: ‘Hey, can I help you with that package?’ Turned out, it was just a regular employee, delivering cars as usual—just like any other foggy morning in Silicon Valley.
