Over the past month, more than 500 people who said they were current and
former Apple employees have submitted accounts of verbal abuse, sexual
harassment, retaliation and discrimination at work, among other issues

....

Apple has about 160,000 employees around the world, and it was unclear
if the newly public complaints reflected systemic problems or isolated
issues that happen at many larger corporations.i

....

While the airing of Apple’s workplace issues is remarkable to many
people who have followed the company over the years, employee activism
has become commonplace in Silicon Valley.

Tim Cook should stick to actually running a computer company and stop
poking his official company nose into political garbage like gay
rights, black rights, "equality", etc. If he wants to do those things,
then he should do them on his own time and not involve the company nor
it's money.

The lazy empoyees should simply do the job they were hired to do -
don't like it, then bugger off and get a job somewhere else. All this
crap about working from home, four-day working weeks, etc. are
ridiculous idiocy that will ruin some companies and simply raise prices
on every product/service.

VMS must die!
