So today I was talking to my friend about when I bought my mac pro, and it reminded me of a funny story I totally forgot about.
Ok so its August 5, 2008. My birthday. Myself, my dad and my mom rush to the apple store to get my birthday present, an 8 core mac pro. So we get to the store and ask for 1 mac pro please. The sales person was.... well he was a moron, plain and simple. We asked him to add 2 more gigs of ram, for a total of 4 gigs. First off he writes Megabytes, which I pointed out to him. Then I asked for an airport card, he spells air-port card; Are Port Car. I have to point that out too. Ok he says come back in 2 hours and everything will be set up, including ur account and everything.
(2 hours pass, I go to subway)
Ok so i get back to the apple store and ask if my mac pro is ready, I get told, "oh its been ready for an hour and a half," thanks for telling me it would take 2 hours.
So i go to the counter and ask them to get me my mac pro. The manager goes into the back room and doesn't come back. 5 minutes later He comes back out empty handed. He tells me, "oh moment its on the way..." I hear him say into his ear piece, "what do you mean you can't find it?" 10 minutes pass, nothing. The manager tells the guys in the back room to get to the counter. We asked them, "who built this mac pro" The guy that comes from the back must be a temp worker or something, because he seems to be distracted by everything. While playing with a near by imac says, "i don't know" then leaves. FINALLY the manager goes into the back room and finds my computer. I look and see it doesnt have apple care (which I also bought) so the manager takes an apple care off the shelf and says here.
I get home, the computer is not set up, but the parts are ordered are installed.
I set up the computer and I forgot all about how horrid the service was at the apple store.
BTW who looses the most expensive computer in the store?
