But the initial boost seems to be drying out. Yesterday, workers at Tesla ’s Austin factory, which assembles the Cybertruck, were told to stay home for the next three days, according to a memo seen by Business Insider. "On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday this week (Dec. 3-5), you do not need to report to work," the memo said.

Tesla has paused Cybertruck production several days at its Giga Austin factory, signaling potential demand issues. Workers were sent home for three days but still received pay. The move suggests Tesla may be managing inventory due to slowing sales.
