Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak is reportedly still on the company payroll, even though he left his post in 1985.

Steve Jobs may be a household name, but fewer people are familiar with Steve Wozniak, one of the co-founders of Apple.

Jobs and Wozniak, along with Ronald Wayne, founded the Apple Computer Company (now known simply as Apple) in 1976. Wozniak paused his studies at the University of California at Berkeley to start the company and later returned to finish a degree in electrical engineering.
