. We found this screengrab on Reddit this morning. Apparently the person who quit was unhappy with his job and chose to inform the company via a custom Macintosh OS X application. Assumetehposition, a former co-worker of the guy who quit, submitted the screengrab to Reddit and posted the following explanation in the comments thread. "He believed he was in a temp-to-hire position, and after three months of extra hours and butt-kissing, turns out it's just a temp position. He was a good worker too. I'd have recommended him. Too bad he burned his bridges... Obviously he had contemplated quitting long enough to make this thing, but still refused to speak to anyone about his feelings. Ironically, he complained about the 'divas' at his last job." What do you think? Diva designer? Passive-aggressive? Regardless of what really happened, we still think it's a pretty clever way to quit. methodshopMethodShop.com 2 days ago
With Black Friday only hours away, gadget freaks everywhere are speculating about what deals Apple might offer this year. A few days ago, Boy Genius Report got their hands on some leaked flyers detailing Apple's Black Friday deals but no one knew if these ads were real or Photoshopped. But now that it's already Friday on the other side of the world, we now know that the deals are real. According to CultOfMac.com, Apple Australia has gone live with the company’s Black Friday savings — and the same deals are likely to be offered elsewhere, including the U.S. Some of the discounts include: Discounts up to 30% off on all iPods (except iPhone and iPod shuffle). Discounts up to 15% off all accessories as well as Apple software and hardware. Discounts to 25% off Macs.

With Thanksgiving only days away, it looks like some wild turkeys in suburban New Jersey decided to launch a preemptive strike. "Mommy!!!!!! The turkey stole my bike!" The turkeys in this video were caught on camera terrorizing a New Jersey neighborhood. At one point in the video, the mother grabs her kids from the attacking turkeys and runs into oncoming traffic. Maybe next time she should try throwing apples at the turkeys. Who knew turkeys could be so dangerous. If you're a parent in N.J., then you might want to keep the kids indoors until after Thanksgiving. VIDEO: Wild Turkeys Terrorizing New Jersey Neighborhood methodshop
