Just got a headhunter LinkedIn message from Tesla

So I'm a programmer having worked in high frequency trading as well as console game hardware tech. This apparently makes me jump out in the filters that headhunters use. Within the last 4 hours I've received 3 messages on LinkedIn from Tesla. They're all coming at me shiny and happy pretending they're oh so flexible – while I'm reading news about Elon's shitty opinions about people not desperate to be at a workplace at least 40 hours a week. So I told them what I just read, links supplied, and how I value my life/work balance.. ..and how my current employer agrees with me on that importance. I hope other people will also respond to Tesla not just by telling them “no”, but by telling them why it's a “no”. Sorry for this long story..
