It was an impulse buy I KNOW Costco is a better shopping experience..x100

I give them enough $$ as it is but still that would've been a better decision...

buying one for someone's birthday soon so that's what I'll do

So you get "ignored" and the guy asks you about ID?

Thats the whole point of having those little pictures on there, to prevent theft.

And you live in the DC area. Probably one of the rudest areas in America.

it's apple...get over it, or don't buy the product.

Long ass day,
sh!ty weather
I got paid.

I got paid.
So I went to buy myself a little toy.

Hell, everything was going great though...work ended on a good note, was walking and talking with a cute GW student for about 6 blocks on the way to the store...

then I walk in...everyone walking away from you, then paying no mind when you ask questions, then throwing your CC on the table instead of handing it back to you after having fvking scrutinized photo on it ( CC with embedded photo), then FVKING IGNORING YOU when you are asking them questions or chatting while you wait...


WTF was wrong with me anyways....had just come from work...nice formal slacks on , londonfog-ish overcoat, [now wrinkled but still decent] geoffrey-beene'ish dress shirt..etc...the girl I was flirting with thought I looked okay and I got my usual looks on the train...nothing special....certainly nothing too out of place*

*=TRYING not to bring race into this... (my own)... TRYING HARD:|

fvking assholes...who the fvk do they think they are...pathetic I guess, that I bought the damn thing in light of such sh!tty service...



[/rantt]


*unpacks his nano and tries to forget*

Translation: "I had a bad end of my day, so I'll play the race card!!! Sweet, sweet Race card, how I love thee. You comfort me when I'm sad, you played catch with me when daddy was on his "business trips" and when "Uncle Joe" was inside busy with mommy.

Wait, I'm taking this too far...

As someone who loves apple products, Apple store workers are the lowest rung of trendy scum.

basically..I just attributed it to them being pretentious fvks despite others I've talked to since saying otherwise...I usually don't play it....it's too easy

It was probably your body odor.


Cheer up, at least the guys didn't hit on you. I mean you were in an Apple store after all.


Edit: The new nano is my first iPod. So cool. I sat and watched the cover flow thing back and forth, back and forth...

 

[gururu2]

i don't buy anything from a retailer if I get a bad vibe; no matter how badly i want something. i have canceled purchases in the middle of a transaction if the cashier is rude for example. i won't often complain or say something, I'll just say nevermind and walk out. if i were you i would go to talk to a manager at the store about it tomorrow. there is no reason for them to pull that kind of crap and you deserve some peace of mind.

Get over it.

A lot of these businesses brag about "customer service" or the "environment" they create for the customer, but when you finally need something, where the hell are they? They'll find a reason to get pissed at YOU and make you feel like you're making a mistake. Customers put food on their table, there should be a bit more respect, we all work to carry on our lives.

Was it really cheaper buying from apple? I'd never buy anything from there. Thats like buying things from the sony store. lol

i agree. never buy from traditional retail channel. newegg/buy.com/amazon FTW.

Goosemaster. You really should have just walked out and had the patience to buy another product, or the same product another store or online.
It may feel like a buzz kill walking out of a store with no product, but the satisfaction is back when you click the "checkout" button at your favorite online store.

Rant is 4/10 since you gave in.

and save on tax.

 

[Throckmorton]

What race are you??

 

[K1052]

you were in an Apple store....

customers get treated like the groveling dogs they are according to the Apple cult

you should be thankful they allowed a person as worthless as yourself entrance into the shrine...er....store in the first place

 

[Rogodin2]

5'11"! You're too short to receive good service!

Rogo

 

[potato28]

They always give crappy service to anyone who walks in that door, and most people still buy their products...

How the F is it an impulse buy if you have been waiting months to save up the money for it?

You sound like a very insecure whiny b!tch unfortunately.

What are your "usual looks on the train" do strangers eyeball you on a regular basis?
Anyway if your getting crappy customer service complain and complain loudly to manager
or rep., I'm sure no one who owns a store and is paying someone to help customers wants
you to have that kind of experience. I used to work as a mystery shopper for Bellsouth mobile
just to help the company ferret out the CSR's that treated customers like crap, it was a fun job..

 

[UNCjigga]

Wait...is this the store in Arlington next to Barnes and Noble?

 

[XZeroII]

I know what you mean. Us white males always get the shaft.

 

[alkemyst]

some people are clearly not apple caliber.

 

[Tiamat]

They didnt know anything about their mac mini. I asked them what was idle power consumption and they pointed me to their 2006 results from a google search I had already done. Pretty lame not knowing anything pertinent about the hardware they sell.
