I'm still breathing..... I think I'm gonna be okay, but stop that please.....Glad to humour you!
Hope you have some unbusted guts remaining.
With apricot jam from the trees they will be planting in the grounds.
Lol... omg.
This, I hope, is your VERY poor attempt at a joke.
Wtf do you think they should do for working space, as the richest company in the world, to help attract the finest talent in the world... rent a few dozen run down slum warehouses in the bad part of town with drafts & no windows??
I suppose you work in a coal mine, love it, & wouldn't want a single thing more pleasant about your working environment, no matter how wealthy your employer becomes... but those holding slightly more white collar jobs feel a bit justified in expecting finer amenities & working conditions. So, your opinion of what Apple should spend their OWN money on, whilst valid to you, thankfully is NOT valid to anyone else.
Or they could use this existing technology..... reeeally nice btw..... opaque by default, needs power to become clear.
Because – to paraphrase Sir Richard Branson – put your staff first!

"It sort of should go without saying -- and it's surprising that it still doesn't go without saying at some companies -- if the person who works at your company is 100% proud of the job they're doing, if you give them the tools to do a good job, they're proud of the brand, if they were looked after, if they're treated well, then they're gonna be smiling, they're gonna be happy and therefore the customer will have a nice experience. If the person who's working for your company is not given the right tools, is not looked after, is not appreciated, they're not gonna do things with a smile and therefore the customer will be treated in a way where often they won't want to come back for more. So, my philosophy has always been, if you can put staff first, your customer second and shareholders third, effectively, in the end, the shareholders do well, the customers do better, and yourself are happy."

Agreed 100%, and although undoubtedly more expensive, multi-level underground parking is a pragmatic and elegant solution to those 'wasteful eyesores' parking lots or above ground garages are.
