The guy was at a car show, NOT at a company event or representing Apple and he was quoting a movie?
I dont get why people give a ****.
because humans tend to pay too much attention to things that ultimately dont affect them.
in this case, apple decided one of their executives is misrepresenting their brand.
i suppose, i should ask you (and anyone else that thinks like you) if this opinion applies to a situation where, say, it's not so potentially benign?
not sure how many remember the white gal strangling her dog by its leash in a new york park, threatening to call 911 on a black man and tell them he was endangering her life (he was recording, from a distance, as she was harassing him and not at all endangering her.)
this video went immediately viral, and before the night was over, Twitter was lighting up the account of the company where she worked with vile, nasty, dumb commentary like "so this is the kind of person you hire?" as if the poor manager that interviewed her had some prior knowledge she is a racist and abusive to animals.
by the time 8am or so hit the next morning, that company already confirmed she had been let go.
when she was being a terrible human, she was not on the clock, not representing her place of work, and also not advertising for the adoption center that provided her the dog. yet the internet decided she should not have a job, or a dog (i do agree with the latter.)
society has clearly decided that when one engages in unsavory behavior in public, their ramifications should be total, and merciless.
