Over on Engadget – www.engadget.com I saw this tonight. I have looked at the part time jobs that Apple has to offer and for the most part it looks like a good place to work. Product Specialists are always in demand there, I could more than likely bluff my way in but I have not been to ‘Apple School’ so I’m not yet ‘one of the body’. This (soon to be out of work if history has any say in it) guy has a few problems with the way Apple does business. I would too, but you know what? Apple is in the business to make money (albeit in their own strange way) so you can expect them to charge for what they do. I do it too, not at the rate Apple gets away with but then again I’m not Apple. When you work on computers you tend to think that anyone can do this. They might try, but if you don’t know what your doing your going to break things more than they were before. Anyway, have a read before the guy gets sacked.
