Just wondering if we have any Mac users here that actually work in an Apple Store? I was just wondering if..

You like your job? What is your job role? How much do you get paid an hour?

Discuss some of your experiences at working in an Apple Store here, I'm thinking of applying!

I know a few folks from other forums who work for Apple. In general, they are prohibited from talking much about their jobs, particularly on-line, based on an agreement they signed as part of their hire package.

One good friend of mine who works at one recently told me that a memo was sent out that directed them not to "speculate or discuss" Apples future strategy or plans on the web or in person. He took this to mean that he was not supposed to participate in on-line blogs, forums or other Apple related discussion groups.

My point? Don't be surprised if you don't get much of a response from current Apple employees. Your best bet is to go to an apple store and ask some of them.

Oh wow really? Can't they just say like "Yeah I work at an Apple Store, it's a nice friendly place, great team of staff?"
