New MacBook Pro's Appearing in Retail Inventory?

Also as expected I said, "No thank you." to the girl and then walked over to the guy

If you were gay and in a mixed bar i'd understand but...
Seriously you may need to update your logic board.

why not talk to the girl? in my experience girls in sales are as competent as the guys working there, except when they don't know something they tend to ask someone who does whereas guys seem to keep talking rather than admitting they don't know.
huge plus for the girls: they are usually more pleasant to look at 😉

You can call me a sexist if you like, but from my personal experience in our Apple store the girl salespeople don't know anything. Anytime I ask a question their answer if very vague or completely wrong. Plus, this lady was about 60. So I knew she wasn't going to know anything about Photoshop and wasn't easy on the eyes.

So I went to the guy, not because he had a big package or anything. Simply because I believe he was going to know more. He did. He was also a part-time Graphic Designer and showed me his work, told me features about the Macbook Pro compared to other models.

Don't get me wrong, if the girl who approached me was mid-twenties, good looking, and actually knew what she was talking about I would of happily spoke with her.

Everyone go look for a fortune teller...
See what he/she will predict the date of the release of MBP...
Then we can share all the dates together 😎
Maybe the fortune teller himself is one of the victim of the MBP wait...

Little did you know but that 'not so easy on the eye' woman was asked by Apple to test the new MBP last week, your loss.

Also do Apple workers get commission? I mean honestly can anyone share my annoyance of Apple workers in the store? I mean the minute I even look in the direction of the store I'm bombarded, It makes me want to avoid the store all together. I mean even when I say, "No thanks." to one person, seconds later another approaches me and begins an ongoing cycle.

I have had the same experience about 50% of the time I go there. Sometimes I ask a question, but they rarely know the answer,
