If you guessed me, you'd be right! I applied for a job at my local Apple Retail Store, and they called me today and told me I got the job. I'm pretty excited about that. Two words: employee discount
No, but seriously, it should be a lot of fun. I showed them my aqua-fied desktop, and a bunch of the guys were convinced it was a Macintosh. High praise, to be sure. Anyway, I thought I'd mention it cause I'm in a really good mood because of it
Plus, every new Apple employee receives (and I swear I'm not making this up) a new 20GB Apple iPod. So now I have two. I dunno what I should do with the extra one, though. Care to make any offers?
So yeah, good day for me ![]()
Guess who works for Apple Computers?
Don't think, you should talk here about two iPods in your pocket...
A lot of people gonna hate you today ![]()
Congrats! ![]()
congratulations! (steal me a g5 dual 2.5...)
Wow, congratulations! I may have to swear off all contact with you out of principle, but that's great. Would you like to become a mole? :-P
-NC
Wow, awesome. Congratulations! ![]()
i wish i'd be u... ![]()
Good for you!...are you a traitor or convert?....Try modding a Mac as much..hehe! (BTW...I'm typing this on an Apple Pro keyboard...loverley!...more beer landlord!).
Yeah, I seriously envy you now... but congrats dude! ![]()
Hehe... good stuff. Have fun at the store... if people return iTrips, it's probably because they dropped them (like I did
).
Holy **** I might apply for a job at an apple store, I could send a pic of one of my screenshots too! And with those kinds of benefits, I would be in heaven and getting paid for it too!
I'm pretty busy with other stuff right now but maybe I could start this summer or when I leave for college...
i got fired from there... they dont like me to much anymore
why, waddaya do?
So does mean that your new avatar will have the Apple Store's nametag?
nightcrawler: I dunno about the mole thing; they promised swift termination for anyone who spills about Apple's inside info :
bh2: Typing this on my own Apple Pro Keyboard, too ![]()
wizard: Not a bad idea. Think I should scan my business card in? ![]()
hahaha congrats man!
free iPod each employee, that's pretty cool..
damn you! i'm so jealous now!!!1
hopefully when the apple store here in toronto opens, i can apply and get hired... ![]()
congrats! i hope you will enjoy this job for a lifetime. just wondering. how's the wages? is it sufficent for a full time job? man. being surrounded by tons of g5s and ibooks and powerbooks really makes the job worth it you know ![]()
what exactly are you doing there? hardware designer? support desk? manager?
BTW: my bid: $10 AUD
he said retail store, probably sales.
iboooooooooooook :-|
I've sorta found that everyone there kinda does a little bit of everything. My manager is starting me out in the iPod section since he knows I've used one for a long time and am familiar with it. After a while, though, I could probably start working in any section. I might even get to work the Genius Bar once I have some more experience with Macs. (As much as I love to emulate them, I have never actually owned one, so needless to say I'm little more experienced with PCs. I was surprised they hired me after I told them I never owned a Mac!
)
steelfist: from what I've seen, wages a very good across the board. I got a very good starting PT wage (more than I was expecting) and the FT employees I've talked with seem very content with everything.
