Fake Steve on why he won’t accept Fortune’s award
Fake Steve Jobs:
The problem is, when Adam from Fortune called and told Katie that they wanted to name me the CEO of the Decade, we all said exactly the same thing at the same time: Just a decade? We went back and forth on it for a while and finally Adam said his bosses just would not go along with calling me the CEO of the Century, since it would not even be clear which century we were talking about, and if it was the last century then what was the point of writing about it now, and the whole point was to do a story about the decade that is just ending, and we came back and said okay how about best CEO of the past quarter century, and again we got hit with this thing about the premise being just to talk about the decade that’s ending—so fine.
Brilliant and hilarious as always.
