i work at mexx. i work at mexx in a really exclusive mall for stuck up rich people who have no sense of how the world revolves.

but that's besides the fact.

yesterday at sherway gardens, the new apple store opened up. i've known about their grand opening for about two weeks now. the thing is, i had to open our store; on a saturday morning; at 830am; sleepy. as my manager and i made the walk to the bank to make our store's deposit we passed by the apple store. you could here it down the hall and around the corner. there were velvet ropes in the hallway directing line traffic into the store. knowing that apple gives a free t-shirt to it's first 1000 customers on grand opening day, i had to at least line up. i went into the line. i was so surprised. i thought for one minute that nobody else knew about the store's opening. that's when the security guard tapped me on my shoulder and said "the line starts over there."

that's when i looked back to the first velvet rope around the other corner. shit.

but that's ok because im persistent. i at least went to check out how long that line was. as i passed by, some joker screamed his wise crack "nice try, buddy", at me. stupid fucker (i can't hate though, i would've said the same thing). the line went out of the building and around the corner of the wall, outside and in the rain. forget that. i love apple but not that much. besides...i justify not lining up with the old "i have to work excuse". *snicker*
work. retail. with a degree. overrated.

ha.

you should really check out an apple store opening if you can, though. they let you go in - single file. all the employees are lined up and down the aisle of the store - clapping and screaming and cheering you on. all in single file, i can't stress that enough. that's how every store should open up. now would opening up everyday like that be too much to ask?

an apple store beside the new nike store. this is the beginning of the end of me.
