The building of Apple's new headquarters in Cupertino, California, is a ring-shaped structure with walls of glass panels. It looks beautiful, of course, but it turned out that transparent walls are not safe at all. Three employees of the company have already been injured by crashing into the walls of the office.

Due to the frequent cases of collisions with glass panels, office staff even began to stick stickers on the walls so that they would be noticeable. However, the stickers were removed later. According to the management, this violates the aesthetics of the building.

Over time, the problem has become more serious. Three employees had to call 911. One flew into the glass with a swing and bled out due to the injury. Another employee was injured more seriously: he cut his eyebrow and even lost consciousness. In the third case, according to the victim himself, "it turned out to be a stupid situation."

Fortunately, this inattentive employee escaped injury.
