As I said, in some countries, you can't treat an on duty public/government "servant" like that.

- justin66 11y agoIf he'd been a police officer investigating a crime, or a fire marshall, that wouldn't fly. Doing it to the mayor is just rude.
- ams6110 11y agoI would generally agree that someone like a mayor or governor deserves some default level of respect, but if he just showed up, unannounced, and "hoped to have a meeting" what did he really think would happen? Most people, even mayors, make appointments when they formally visit another organization in an official capacity. They don't just walk in and expect to be seen.
- ptaipale 11y agoIt depends. If the mayor has been rude or dishonest himself, it isn't. And as someome said, this does not quite pass the smell test.
- imjk 11y agoBut he wasn't even the mayor at the time he visited.
- dragontamer 11y ago> If he'd been a police officer investigating a crime, Which means he'd have to have a warrant. If an Officer was "just investigating", they have to be invited or have a court order to get onto private property. In America anyway.
- justin66 11y agoIt's not quite that simple. If the police officer has probable cause to believe a crime is in progress, or the fire marshal believes a dangerous code violation might exist, woe to the dumbass who tries to escort them off the property. Otherwise, yes, a police investigator needs permission, or a warrant, to go onto the Apple campus and ask questions or look around.
- pflats 11y agoAnd walking into someone's place of work uninvited, expecting them to drop everything and meet with you isn't rude? I'd be rightly ticked off if someone did that to me, and I'm not one of the worlds richest and most secretive companies.
