If it meant my work processes were as streamlined and organized as Apple's operating standard? Political antics gone? Safety and security with no negotiation?

Tempting...

(Just experimenting with the idea, not that I actually agree with this line of thought.)

Would you be willing to pay a 30% "Apple" fee on all transactions because what Apple is doing prevents companies from passing on saving to consumers.

Companies pay 30% of an employee's salary to strealine their hiring efforts - doesn't seem far fetch to me to expand that payment pattern to a consumer level where one is paying 30% on transactions and in return receiving a streamlined process for discovering, managing and reversing them through a centralized gateway.

Again, not that I agree with this...just playing devil's advocate here.

I don't want to pay 30% on any transactions!

So Apple, who illegally colluded with other tech companies to keep engineering salaries down, should be put in control of hiring processes?

There isn't a lol big enough

If what I hear from people who work for Apple is true, I wouldn’t be so optimistic.

Hah, touché. I meant more mac/iOS UX, less Apple employee experience.
