They should’ve removed that image on apple.com:

from the Apps for travelling, apps for losing your iPhone prototype page.

Or else I wouldn’t be able to do this:

If found in a German bar please return to Gray Powell iPhone App

The App, Gray Powell did not have

Have you seen a Steve Jobs keynote? Have you noticed he seems to be wearing the same black polo/turtle neck for years?

I got interested and here’s what came up:

In the 1998 Macworld keynote he seems to be wearing the black turtle neck. Unfortunately the quality of the video is quite low, but I’m sure if you dig deeper you can find a better quality pictures/videos.

Same goes for the 1999 keynote, where even Noah Wyle wears one of these! Noah Wyle played Jobs in Pirates of Silicon Valley which came out in 1999.

Skipping a few years and you can compare and contrast some pictures of 20052007, 2008, 2010.

The jeans Jobs wears are of different color on some occasions, and so are the sneakers! But the turtle neck looks the same always! So what is that turtle neck made of? Kevlar? Diamond threads? Unobtainium? Or maybe it’s not the threads at all!

Всеки период се характеризира със своите ‘силни’ и ‘модерни’ хора и техните ‘професии’. Силните и модерните са тези, на които всички искат да поддръжават:

До 1989 трябваше да си (син на) член на ЦК.

Около 1992 трябваше да си просто ‘гъзар’.

След 1995 се изискваше да си борец.

Около 2000 година стана модерно да си (син на) хотелиер.

След 2003 всичко се опрости – трябваше да си просто крупен бизнесмен.

Днес, бизнесмените не са на мода – работят твърде много, имат прекалено много отговорности. Днес, ако искаш да си модерен – стани консултант.

The successful candidate must have:

  • 5+ years of experience in the field
  • Excellent command of English and the biological unit’s mother tongue
  • Recommendation from a previously managed department
  • Proven track record

The job responsibilities are:

  • Taking the department to the field
  • Driving in the department from the field
  • Managing the department in the field daily
  • Making weekly and monthly reports about the department’s production
  • Keeping track of the department’s needs and notifying the responsible person if their needs are not in congruence with the internal company policy
