"When Henry Ford went to hire people, he would take them out to lunch. If they salted their food before they tasted it, he wouldn’t hire them."

What did he mean by this?

he had a pet peeve and mistakingly assumed that it would quantify a chefs skill to judge people based on it.
Also there's a little bit of merit to it, because if a person always finds things being not salty enough, they might not have the most well rounded palette. mostly he's just being an idiot

Salt is bad for cars so Ford hated salt

(((salt)))

Ford had some weird ideas about people. Not all of them were wrong.

For example, he was right about ( ( ( them ) ) )

he was autistic.

No he wasn't. He did not sit on youtube all day watching train videos. He was fucking brilliant. Autistics are useless unless you want someone to trash a grocery store and beat up their own mother.

The IHFDF shows up right on schedule. If he was so smart why is he dead?

Maybe it showed a lack of faith in a product. Instead of trying something first before adding salt they assume it needs extra shit that might not even be necessary. That can be a trait that will cost a business money.
That's just my take on it though

let's be real though, it just annoyed him and he used his business as a way of acting out.

>taking shitposting seriously
ever consider that you're the one that's autistic.

When Hitler dropped the ball on the Jews, he died of a broken heart.

He could have been a functional autist. Back in the day they did not coddle them like we do now. So if he had any abilities (which he clearly did), he would have been forced to be a valuable contributing member of society, rather than allowed to exist as a useless shit.

Someone who has that level of success and works that hard to achieve it will usually have good, personal reasons for what they do towards their business.

Are you oblivious to the fact he is also shitposting?

no, fuck off. A trait that can cause success can also make someone a spiteful dick. See every dictator. There's not such a thing as a perfect human being, a virtue in one situation can be a vice in the next. henry ford being a sperglord that'd hire based on salting just to fuck with people he hates might have made him more capable in a cutthroat industry

that man is a homosexual of the highest order

You can always add salt, but you can't take it away.

Undersalted food can always be salted, but oversalted food is trash.

There's a nonzero probability that the food is already sufficiently salted.

Therefor, if you salt your food before tasting, there's a nonzero probability that you will have oversalted food.

Therefor, when considering salting before or after tasing:

Salt after tasting:
> Pro: Less likely to oversalt food
> Pro: Better likelihood of well-salted food
> Con: One tiny nibble of potentially understalted food

Salt before tasting:
> Pro: Potentially you're not eating a tiny nibble of undersalted food
> Con: More likely to oversalt, which can't be fixed
> Con: Conversely, without tasting it, you may add insufficient salt and end up eating under-salted food anyway

So as you can see, it's very plainly illogical to salt before tasting. Anyone who does that, does not have a very logical mind. He's looking for people who 'measure twice and cut once', not people who cut before measuring.

I didn't say he was perfect I just guessed at his reasoning for doing what he did. He might have just been a dick, or he thought it was a valid criticism of someone's personality.
In my experience, the people who dump hot sauce, salt, ketchup, etc. on their food before tasting it are fairly stubborn and set in their ways in a lot of other aspects of life as well. Running a major business requires flexibility and an open mind to alternative strategies.

There's something sketchy about this guy, I don't know what it is

Can't tell which is more flamboyant, Salt guy or OP's name.

He died like a bitch.
