911 calls confirm strange workplace hazard at Apple
Fox News ^ | 3/5/2018 | By Newser Editors | Newser

Last month, reports emerged about a strange workplace hazard at Apple's sleek new headquarters in Cupertino. It seems that people keep walking head first into the glass walls at Apple Park.

Now the San Francisco Chronicle confirms the news via 911 calls on three separate incidents in early January. Some highlights:

First call: "We had an individual who ran into a glass wall pane and they hit their head. They have a small cut on their head and they are bleeding, slightly disoriented."

Second call: "So we had an employee, he was on campus and he walked into a glass window, hitting his head, has a little bit of a cut on the eyebrow." When the dispatcher asks if the blood is "spurting or pouring out," the caller clarifies: "I think it’s just leaking … a small cut."

Sounds like a problem a three year old with a sticker book could resolve in a half hour.

Why in the world would anyone want glass walls in their offices? Glass is time consuming and difficult to clean well. Besides the air head walking into it problem, there are plenty of other problems glass walls must cause.

Some Bozo always has to put his big greasy paws or his greasy nose on it to make faces.

Janitors try to clean it but often turn the grease spots into hazy clouds when when and where the sun shines.

Also, I’m not so sure I want my coworkers having the ability to scope me out 24/7. What’s up with that?

I’m sure they know lots down there at Apple but I doubt they have much common sense.

Does Tim Cook’s office have glass walls. I bet not.

Bird brained liberals? With GPS guidance, too. LOL. Oh the irony, you can not make this stuff up.

We need to sell them a ultrasonic proximity alarm app. to keep them from walking into things while walking around distracted.

I've seen birds fly into window panes, I wonder if there is a connection, maybe there are liberal brained birds! The defective brain disease of liberalism may have jumped species. /sarc

Was at a pool party in the 1970’s where the family had a big dog that kept running back and forth from kitchen to pool at full tilt. Someone closed the glass door. The door hit the door at full speed. What a mess. Ruined the party. Needed a lot more than band-aid to help that poor creature.
