Apple has fired VP of Purchasing Tony Blevins after he made a bad joke in a TikTok video.
The video was directed by Daniel Mack. It records video recording, in cases where the owners of expensive cars than they do for a living.
In a video posted Sept. 5, Mack approached Blevins as he parked a $500,000 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.
When Blevins states what he does for a living, he is in line with this:
I have expensive cars, I play golf and caress women with large breasts, but I take days off and [не работаю по] big holidays.

Blevins also added that he has “administrative dental insurance.”
Perhaps Blevin misunderstood the quote from the 1981 film Arthur. However, the video quickly became interesting on TikTok and gained 1.4 million views.
This marked the beginning of an internal investigation by Apple. Then Blevins was suspended from work, and then fired. The decision on the structure was made personally by Jeff Williams, Apple’s chief operating officer.
Blevins worked at Apple for 22 years. His job was to negotiate deals with suppliers and contributors on favorable terms for Apple. During the construction of Apple Park, he saved the company “hundreds of millions of dollars.” [iMore]
