Ridiculous.

Apple should be ashamed of itself. Commercialism has gotten out of hand. Why in the world does it need to be open 365 days a year? Have they never heard of holidays so employees can have time off and spend it with their families? Even Wal-Mart is closed Christmas Day.

Not everyone celebrates Christmas (or whatever holiday you want to name).

But yes, some might want to have off so it would be nice if for holidays they asked for volunteers to work.

Someone still has to work it.

What really erks me is when a store like CVS, Eckerd, or Walgreen's is open on Thanksgiving or whatever holiday like they are performing some service and the pharmacy isn't even open.

Most Holidays (especially Christmas) have transcended their original purposes to be more of National Day Off. 98% of people "celebrate" Christmas in some manner or form. My family certainly doesn't celebrate the religious side of it, but its an important day when everyone can get together without having to worry about work.

I just believe its asinine that companies make it out to be like they are performing some service when they are out to make a buck at the expense of employees who already work a crappy job. I want to see Steve Jobs in there working on Christmas Day or Thanksgiving or New Year's Day or whatever holiday.

Not here in NYC.
Lots of businesses are open on Dec. 25th. I think I'll visit the Apple store on that day. Might be kind of fun.

I always work Thanksgiving putting up Christmas decor. The money is sweet!!!
 
You think there is a chance they will release something? I mean it opened at 6pm, how late would they go to?

Beautiful store by the way, would love to be part of it.

Working At An Apple Store Is Not A Crappy Job - It's An Honor And A Priviledge

Working At An Apple Store Is Not A Crappy Job - It's An Honor And A Priviledge. I am sure I am not the only one here who would be happy to work all holidays every year cheerfully. You are not empathic with millions who would love to have a job working anywhere on holidays - especially at an Apple Store. :rolleyes:

I wish an Apple Store Manager lurking here would IM me for an interview in the Bay Area of Northern California. :)

Hey all,

Thought I'd say hello from inside the store! I got to see Steve (right in front of me actually, I didn't even notice at first!), and got some pictures of him. James Woods and Kevin Bacon are both here as well. It's pretty damn crazy in here, and a lot of fun. The glass staircase and cube is amazing! This whole thing was worth the wait. I was outside since 2 in the afternoon, and braved some absolutely horrible pelting rain for a while, but I was #68 in here!

Cheers!

Mark

I'm jealous. Can you send me the pics you took?

Thanks
