Perhaps the hypnotherapy and brain waving of apple employees is no longer enough to keep them happy and readily willing to spread the Apple 'experience'. If only apple cared more for their unofficial employees in slave labour conditions in foxconn camps

Tim: 'to keep everyone happy, we will fire anyone who is unhappy.'

Most Apple workers are fanboy... They still satisfied their work enenthough they miss 3 month salaries :)

So.. they are like the house elves in harry potter? Taking absolute pleasure in serving their masters. Just an analogy though... based on what you said. No offence to anyone.

I've read a lot that points to this being true, the working conditions are extremely stressful, they don't get paid as well as other tech companies, and they do it because they totally buy into the Apple philosophy

IMO, if I worked for a company as rich as Apple, I'd be asking for a lot more pay than what they offer.

Apple to make staff happy? That's gotta be hard for them because they lack integrity.

That's weird, I thought all Apple employees are happy at their job.
