Never again.

Between the idiotic continued mask policy and the workers with Pronouns on their name tags it will be a long time until I set foot in that place again.

The masks were stupid a year ago and they are even more ridiculous now.

Seriously? I wonder if they make them do that or if it’s a choice. I swear to God I’d instantly quit any f’n retail job that tried to make me participate in that dumb fricking exercise of insanity.

Dear diary,

Today I was triggered by a piece of cloth and some text on a name tag.

Sounds traumatic.

Did you immediately leave or did you stay and get whatever you wanted accomplished?

Was the customer service poor?

Was someone mean or rude to you?

Are you an ultra sensitive person?

Really curious because you sound mad.

You should’ve publicly poked fun and shamed them. That’s not normal and they need to know that.

Not all of them had them it appeared to be voluntary.

I pushed back on the mask crap and the lady said Apple is based out of California and as a company they still have a mask policy in their stores. I reminded the lady we are not in California.

They are free to do it and I'm free to tell them it's stupid.

Cults do culty things. As all things Apple/Mac. C'est la vie.

Manage your expectations better.

Are their policies dumb? Sure. Should you have known that and expected it before you arrived? You betcha.

I bet you stayed and did whatever it was you went there to accomplish, so it must not have been as bad as you claim.

I knew you wouldn't answer the questions.

Make up ridiculous and offensive sounding words, say they are your pronouns and force the wokers to use them

Actually I was picking up a new one as my aging 6S is on its last legs.

I should probably vote with my wallet but I'm not sure in Android stuff is the lesser of two evils or not.

You obviously care enough to comment?

Such a low IQ retort, but based on your OP it's expected
