Steve Jobs este recunoscut ca fiind unul dintre oamenii cu care se lucra destul de dificil, dar caruia ii si placea sa incalce regulile oricand avea ocazia. Probabil multi dintre voi stiti deja ca Steve Jobs parca intotdeauna pe locul pentru persoane cu dizabilitati in parcarea companiei Apple, insa asta nu e singura regula pe care presedintele celor de la Apple o incalca.
Conform fostului vicepresedinte senior al Apple, Scott Forstall, Steve Jobs avea inclusiv obiceiul de a manca gratuit la restaurantul din interiorul campusului Apple din Cupertino. Desi fiecare angajat trebuia sa plateasca masa zilnica, care costa cam 8 dolari tot timpul, Steve Jobs reusea sa manance gratuit in fiecare zi, lucru detaliat de Forstall in interviul de mai jos.
Mesele zilnice erau platite de catre angajati folosind cartela cu care aveau acces in campului Apple si diversele camere din interiorul sau. Apple a gandit acest sistem pentru ca angajatii sa nu piarda mult timp asteptand la coada pentru mancare, scanarea card-ului generand in debit pentru mancare, care era retras din salariul lunar al fiecarui angajat.
Steve Jobs avea un salariu anual de 1 dolar in cadrul Apple, dar totusi manca zilnic folosind cardul de acces pe care il avea pentru a intra in campus. Desigur ca el avea cel mai probabil gratuitate la tot ceea ce oferea Apple, in calitate de presedinte al companiei, insa Scott Forstall isi aminteste cu amuzament cum Steve Jobs pacalea Apple tot timpul si manca gratuit.
“He and I would go to lunch at the cafeteria at Apple all the time, and he would insist on paying. I was like, you’re paying me enough that I can afford the $8 lunch, but he’d always — if he got his food before, he’d wait at the line for me to get up there, and he’d pay. And he made it so you could pay with your badge. So you’d come up there and you’d badge in, and it would be directly withdrawn from your paycheck. “Somehow, I was like, ‘Why are you — I mean, like, really, go sit down. I’ll be out there. I feel like an ass while you’re sitting there waiting for me, and I feel like I can’t get any long-cooking food,’ and he said, ‘No, no, no. This is great. I only get paid $1 a year. I don’t know who’s paying every time I badge.’ He was a multibillionaire scamming Apple!”
