More Apple store bullshit from employees.

Posted on August 23, 2008 by Percy Kwong

So I just get back from the Apple store at the Bergen Plaza mall in NJ where I asked an employee, “When do you think Apple is going to fix the 3g issue with the iphones?”  He replies to me, “It’s fixed.  They fixed it with 2.0.2”  I replied to him that it made my iphone 3g service worse.  He first tried to blame it on where I live, then on the fact that the next firmware fix on the 28th will fix it, then insists that his 3g iphone is fixed.

So, I asked him if he had his iphone on him.  He says yes.  I asked him, “Do you get twice the speed of an edge connection?”  He replies, “absolutely.”  So I said, “OK.. Let’s see.”  I call my girlfriend over to bring me her edge first gen iphone so we can test.  My girl hands me her iphone and he immediately says, “uhm.. I have to go finish up with this customer.. I’ll be right back.”  So I tell him, “OK.. I’ll be waiting.”

He goes to the other side of the store, jokes around with his friends, etc.  Everything other than what looks to me like he’s helping a customer.  I wait 45 min. and he’s still avoiding me like the plague.

Fucking Apple employees get busted in a lie and then run away.  Ahh yes.. Just reinforces my thoughts about Apple.
