CNET reports:

Apple's San Francisco flagship store temporarily became a scene of confusion and arrests on Thursday because of a sit-in held inside. A gathering of roughly 50 protestors were demonstrating against Apple for allegedly underpaying contract employees that work at its retail stores.

The protestors reportedly belong to the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and said Apple routinely underpays contractors, such as security guards. The union also alleged that Apple hires contractors for part-time jobs to prevent paying employee benefits.

    Ah, I get it now.
    Your schtick is to tell people what is inside their own heads particularly in contradiction to their own words, and then act like they should be able to read your mind too.
    Well, enjoy that sense of superiority because that's about all that's in evidence here.

    Well... except for my first post where I showed you the issue with your point. Oh.. and again when I used your words against you. I'm both right and smug right now, thank you.
