The Apprentice has just finished in the UK, the winner gets to work with Alan Sugar founder of AMSTRAD, and through the series he gives some entertaining 'feedback' in the boardroom when firing, and tonight hiring.

Couldn't help but wonder what would happen if Steve was running the show, with a job at Apple up for grabs. Can you imagine the scenes in the boardroom after tasks.

Anyway, just thought I'd share that...

Still I wonder what tasks Steve would set the teams each week....

They would be pelted with digital cameras when they failed.

I imagine he'd change you're fired to "Boom!" And then there'd be a puff of smoke and they'd be gone!

When he finds his apprentice he would tell him that starting next summer salary would be 300K a year. Then break that promise.

Oh, come on. That's not his fault. It's IBM's fault. Apparently, the RDF doesn't extend to employees of other companies.
