"In the early iChatAV days, one of the many things Steve Jobs called me was a 'fuckchop'. When I got to iPod, I thought it would make a nice title. #gklst," Huffington Post quoted Grignon, as saying in his Geeklist post.

According to Walter Isaacson's depiction of the Apple co-founder in the authorized biography of Jobs, he claimed that the legendary inventor may be known as one of the greatest innovators of our time, but he was not the nicest boss.

"He's not warm and fuzzy ... He was not the world's greatest manager. In fact, he could have been one of the world's worst managers," Isaacson said during an interview.
