Steve Jobs was a genius, but also rather crazy. He used to soak (замачивать)
his feet in toilets to relieve (снять) stress. At one point in his life, he stopped
taking showers because he believed his meat-free diet (диета без мяса) would
stop his body from producing body odor (запах).
He was as a demanding man with a temper (характером), a true perfectionist.
Jobs used to fire (увольнять) people on the spot (сразу) if there were any
slight errors (ошибки) made.
One of his former (бывший) employees Michael Dhuey said in an interview:
“He was very clear about what he didn’t like and was not filtered with his input
(вклад). If he was in a meeting that was boring him, he would be blunt
(резкий/прямолинейный) and say ‘I don’t need to see this, let’s move on.’
And we would. He couldn’t stand losing time (не мог перенести, когда
терялось время).”
"Once he even stormed out (выбежал) of a 5-star hotel because in his opinion
it was “a piece of shit”.
Did you know that Steve Jobs used to eat so many carrots that, at one point, his
skin turned slightly orange?
