Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

[QUOTE=runningman;993866]So I should get banned for telling the truth ?? Jobs owns a company that is the worst company in the world to work for. He claims to be a humanitarian yet people working at his plants are jumping off of the buillding so they can collect $10,000 (10 years worth of work working at Apple).. That is pretty sad. I feel bad for a lot of you that are so torn up about this guy dying.

"Never feel bad for a man that owns a plane." anthony hopkins in the movie the edge.

I just touched something in all of you because most of you own some Apple goods and to think it was made by someone who wants to kill themselves touched you. Thus you took out your anger on me.[/QUOTE]

its not what u tell its how u tell it and of course your opinion is always right in ur eyes but offensive to others, this is the problem here!!!

for god sake the guy has just died and ur mouthing off about him...

Yeah it depends on how aware they are of the situation and how they choose to deal with it. I worked with a lot of bands 20 years ago and trying to get ethically printed T-shirts was impossible.

Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

Dennis Richie died this week who for sure has had more impact on lives than Jobs, so here is a good article about a guy who had a huge influence but won't get much recognition outside of tech circles. RIP to him too. My career and life would be 100% different than it is now if it weren't for this guy.
