When our Apple Store in our mall was new, it was this big thing that everyone had to go see. I think this was 2005, so I was fifteen, and I remember one of the first times I was ever in there just being basically a tech tourist, it was summer and they were running a summer camp program for kids in the store (which they still do, it’s day camp and it’s really cute). One of my...

I’m going to be a super-obnoxious teenybopper for a moment and ask:
White or black iPhone?

My phone has been unreliable and on the fritz for about eight months now, but today it really shit its pants, to the point where I can’t make or receive calls or texts or notifications of anything anymore. I stomped over to Verizon on my lunch break (third visit in maybe three months about the same problem which just keeps getting worse) and was like “my phone is basically completely...

This place is so much fun I’m kind of waiting for them to be like “just kidding, back to a boring office job you don’t care about” and for everyone to expose themselves as assholes, take away our amazing benefits, and to just be thrown to the wolves. Training is so extensive that I probably won’t even get to handle a customer completely on my own for two more...

I’m pathetic for knowing this, but I’m 98% sure that picture is from The Guardian:
Rock stars are meant to seem smaller in real life. Particularly those who’ve had to shoulder as heavy a title as “saviours of rock’n’roll” for the past decade. But the Strokes – Julian, Nick, Fab, Albert, Nikolai – are enormous. As in, they take up an awful lot of space,...

I decide to just check the first few pages of my dash after watching Sherlock before bed and I’m confronted with Julian flipping me off and I was tired but now I am laughing SO HARD…

But really, just yesterday I got the urge to listen to Mumford and Sons for no apparent reason other than I hadn’t in ages, and I was like “damn this is a really great album, too bad it’ll probably be awhile before I see them again, they were my favorite artist out of all of them at Coachella.”
And now I’m seeing them in a few weeks?
And what business does JON...

My job basically makes me spaz out all over the place and want to hug everyone
I got to nerd out with software all day and my mind is blown
Everything about it and the people and the benefits and what I’m doing makes me flap my arms around like a little kid
Still a bit intimidated about customers and stuff, but that’s later anyway
Coldplay announced an NYC charity gig with Mumford...

what does 6am even look like
TERRIBLE, because I hadn’t seen it in YEARS before last week

I have to wake up at 6 for the next three days and that sheer fact makes me want to punch myself in the face.
BUT the next three days are mostly me sitting in a room with the others getting to actually play with all of the software and hardware and products and learn things about them in-depth, and this is what I’ve been looking forward to since December, so I can totally deal with this....

Oh my GOD my mom is talking to my aunt on the phone, and it’s not like I told my mom lots of things at all about my benefits and training at Apple so far, but the few things I did tell her (namely my benefits, nothing really about the specifics of training because that’s a big no-no), but she’s just spilling EVERYTHING to her on the phone about my perks that she knows and I feel...

My former boss just shared a Ron Paul campaign to “end the TSA” on Facebook because of the whole Rand Paul detention thing. According to the image, the campaign has raised over $46,000. My boss’s tagline about it was “Don’t wait til it affects you. Take action. Educate, inform, spread.” YEAH, LET’S END THE TSA AND SEE HOW WELL THAT WORKS OUT FOR EVERYONE....

Anonymous asked: Since you're a mac expert now, could you settle a little fight between me and my friend? According to him, if I upgrade to Lion I have to make sure all my files are backed up because the upgrade will wipe everything off my hard drive, but this doesn't make sense to me at all. Any advice? Thanks!
I’m working 8-5 three days this week to complete training, so even though I have the day off tomorrow too, it’s probably not that wise to stay up til 3AM tonight, sleep til 1PM tomorrow, and then have to try and go to bed early to wake up at 6AM on Wednesday. And yet I’m doing it anyway.
I cannot stress enough how grateful I am that the rest of my shifts so far are from 4-10PM,...

Now that I have…shall we say ~benefits~, I’m spending a lot of time in the app stores for both OSX and iOS5 and acting very much like a kid in a candy store who doesn’t know what to jam in my mouth first and is vaguely worried about puking it all up after gorging, or in my case, running out of hard disk space on my various devices, present and future.
I’m seriously...
