I have to work almost all the time. My day typically begins at 3am and ends around 7pm. The reason for this is that my own projects and goals are often contingent on the successful completion of projects by other teams, and organizationally we tend to hire C workers at best. So I spend a lot of time pushing other people and other teams. It doesn’t make me popular but it does make me effective.

Where will this lead? How would you react if you were laid off ?

[zrb05292]

I was laid off about 4 years ago. My boss Skyped me (really!) and said there was no easy way to put it but they were moving the business in a different direction and I, along with my team, were being laid off. I laughed at him, said ok, and hung up. Then I stomped around angrily for half an hour. Then I hopped on LinkedIn and started applying for every open position that looked appealing. In 12 days I was made an offer and started the following week.

You’re replying to the CEO of Apple.

That's a very bad thing for a CEO to ever say. He is the one dictating that his organization hires C workers at best.

But, anyway, I'm really curious about know how he would answer that question.

This is great! I'm probably a high c* so if apple are hiring I'm in!
