With so many doors, by the time they get to the last one coming in, it's time to turn around and go the other direction to leave...and by the time they get to the last door going out, its time to go to work again...little do they know that they are walking on foot powered walkways that are connected to turbine generators and they in fact are powering the rest of the Apple complex :laugh:

All this fuss to avoid a leak? They could put the restroom inside the secure areas. :-D

And we finally traced the leak! It was the carpenter that had to fix all these bloody doors.

I work in defense, they're more in your face and sloppy than anything I've dealt with on the job. We've got badges with pin numbers for access control, but only people with access to X can get into where X is being done, so having to throw blankets over your desk is a non issue. At the end of the day it just gets put in a safe and you spin the lock. From the sound of it someone in apple needs to read the NISPOM and redo their procedures to be more secure and less obnoxious at the same time. On the other hand the hippies in Apple would probably suffer from exploded heads from reading a doc with DoD logos. On the gripping head ignore my previous objection. :laugh:

You threw in NISPOM as though we all know what it means.

Anyone who wants to find out more about the security on BIG projects should read Richard Feynman's accounts of working on the Manhattan Project - hilarious (and frightening) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surely_You%27re_Joking,_Mr._Feynman![^]
