He tore into the engineers, criticizing them for every detail, and told them that they should install roofs themselves so that they would recognize when their designs failed. He pushed them to install roofs faster and cut costs. He summoned one of the employees, Brian Dow, to fly out to Boca Chica. Dow did so, even though it was his birthday. Together, Dow and Musk brainstormed plans to cut costs and Musk grilled Dow on details. However, Musk decided that Dow was not up to his standards, so he fired him.
