In late 1996, Steve Jobs returned to Apple (AAPL) after being ousted as CEO 12 years earlier. He soon became Apple’s interim CEO, and immediately terminated a number of non-profitable projects. By wikipedia’s account, many employees were in fear of bumping into Jobs in the elevator–‘afraid that they might not have a job when the doors opened.”
