作者： 安迪·赫茨菲尔德 日期： 1985年2月 人物： 伯勒尔·史密斯、史蒂夫·乔布斯 主题： 管理、退出 概要： 关于苹果第一代Macintosh的开发以及制造它的人的轶事: 伯勒尔退出苹果公司，但未能兑现他的威胁 , 你会这么做吗？ Are You Gonna Do It?

It’s hard to leave Apple, even if you want to, if Steve Jobs wants you to stay. You would have to talk to him and have a special conversation where he would make you think things differently, and this often worked to change people’s minds. One day, some of us were discussing ways to resist Steve’s persuasive power.

如果史蒂夫·乔布斯希望你留下来，即使你愿意，你也很难离开苹果。
你必须和他交谈并进行一次特殊的谈话，他会让你以不同的方式思考问题，这通常会改变人们的想法。
有一天，我们中的一些人正在讨论如何抵制史蒂夫的说服力。

“I’ve figured it out!”, said Burrell. “I know the best way to stop doing something that will make it seem like it never happened.”

“我已经弄清楚了！”伯勒尔说。 “我知道最好的方法是停止做一些让事情看起来好像从未发生过的事情。”

We also wanted to know how he did it.

我们也想知道他是如何做到的。

“I’ll just go to Steve’s office, pull down my pants, and pee on his desk. What could he say to that? I’m sure it will work.” We laughed, thinking no one, not even Burrell, would have the courage to do something so crazy. Note: The original text is a bit crude and provocative, but the rewritten text keeps the same tone and sarcasm while using simpler language.

“我会去史蒂夫的办公室，脱下裤子，然后在他的桌子上撒尿。他对此能说什么？我相信这会起作用。”我们笑了，心想没有人，甚至伯勒尔，有勇气做如此疯狂的事情。
注：原文有些粗俗和挑衅，但重写后的文本保持了相同的语气和讽刺，同时使用了更简单的语言。

After a year and a half, it was finally time for Burrell to leave. For months, he had been having trouble with some managers, including Bob Belleville, who wanted to stop working on a special new Mac computer project. This project, called “Turbo Mac”, was supposed to be faster and have a bigger hard drive, and Burrell was working on it with Brian Howard and Bob Bailey.

一年半后，伯勒尔终于到了离开的时候了。几个月来，他一直与一些经理发生矛盾，其中包括鲍勃·贝尔维尔（Bob Belleville），他想停止在一个特殊的新 Mac 电脑项目上的工作。
这个项目被称为“Turbo Mac”，应该速度更快，硬盘容量更大，伯勒尔正在与布莱恩·霍华德和鲍勃·贝利一起开发这个项目。

Burrell told Bob and the people in charge of employee problems that he was leaving his job. He then made an appointment to see Steve later that day. When Burrell went to Steve’s office, he was surprised to see Steve smiling at him.

伯勒尔告诉鲍勃和负责员工问题的人，他将离职。然后他约了当天晚些时候去见史蒂夫。当伯勒尔去史蒂夫的办公室时，他惊讶地看到史蒂夫对他微笑。

“Are you going to do it? Will you really do it?”, Steve asked. Steve had heard that Burrell was going to do something mean and was wondering if it was true.

“你会这么做吗？你真的会这么做吗？”史蒂夫问道。史蒂夫听说​​伯勒尔要做一些卑鄙的事，想知道这是否属实。

Burrell looked Steve straight in the eye. “Do I really have to? But if I have to, I will.”

伯勒尔直视史蒂夫的眼睛。 “我真的必须这样做吗？但如果必须的话，我会的。”

When Steve looked unhappy, it was clear what was going to happen, so Burrell got up and left the office, no longer working for Apple.

当史蒂夫看起来不高兴时，很明显会发生什么，所以伯勒尔起身离开了办公室，不再为苹果工作。
