Three Apple workers hurt walking into glass walls in first month at $5bn HQ

"Employees in Apple Park, Apple’s grand new spaceship-style headquarters in California, keep walking into glass doors and windows.
Despite warnings from a building inspector that people would not be able to tell where the door ends and the wall begins, at least three Apple employees walked or ran into the ultra-transparent glass hard enough to require emergency medical treatment during the first month of occupation, according to recordings of 911 calls obtained by the San Francisco Chronicle."

Until the human body evolves and grows a third eye at the top of our head enabling people to look forward whilst texting on the move, there is bound to be an increase in these type of head v wall incidents
I wonder how many of these Apple incidents in this hightech environment are glass related and how many related to text-and-walk events?
