The Apple Store is a pretty laid back place, with friendly staff who will help you pick out a computer -- or, if you'd prefer, leave you alone to write an entire book on the store's computers. But just how far can you push it before the staff get fed up?

New York-based comedian Mark Malkoff decided to test the limits of the Apple Store's friendliness.

LOL... WTF? A pizza delivered and nobody had anything to say? A date with trumpet player and all? I have a feeling that my local store would not let us get away with any of that.

*I also find it ironic that I can't view this video on my iPhone. :rolleyes:

It is New York after all so there are some people that you have no choice but to deal with them.
 
And don’t forget the horse who is a regular in the Apple Store!

They really do let you get away with anything* pretty much. I was there with a friend once half an hour past closing, and they answered questions we asked, but never said a word about the time. When we realized we were the only ones not in uniform, we looked at the time and figured it out for ourselves! And of course you can make calls on their iPhones, too. (I wonder—even international calls? Probably!)

* Except MySpace....
 
Someone brought a monkey in the south hills village apple store once when I was there for a appointment.
 
My Apple store won't allow that - they kicked some people out for giving out handouts about 'How to Jailbreak your iPhone?''. I'm sure - when jailbreakme wasn't blocked - someone would've jailbroken the iDevices - then gotten kicked out.
 
Oh man, I haven't laughed so much in quite a while! My favourite was when Darth was all like 'I used to be with hotmail' :p

That sounds reasonable. You can't be giving out flyers telling you how to void your warranty because when people come back and they have a problem they will not be abled to service the phone.

Some big buff guy brought in a duck at the valley fair apple store! It was hilarious!
 
Apple Store employee: "Did you just have a pizza delivered?"
Mark: "Yeah"
Apple Store employee: "That's awesome."

They are just the most laid back people. Working at an Apple Store has to be one of the least stressful jobs out there.




Greatest Of All Things?

Greatest Of All Time, it was a basketball reference :p

Also don't forget about iTr3vor on YouTube. He has over a million of views of him dancing in the Apple Store in Temecula. They still let him do videos.
 
Pizza!

I ordered a pizza while I was waiting in line for the iPad2!

Then like 2 hours later someone else did.

Trend STARTER!
 
You could use the goat to flag someone down, and actually get some service.
