My Biggest Pet Peeve
Even if someone assumes a problem is an "easy swap" or "quick fix," making an appointment and waiting in line are necessary.
3. A lot of the "water-damaged" keyboards aren't actually damaged by water.
4. You accidentally see every type of picture imaginable.
5. Many are of pets and random stuff, but not a day goes by when you don't see some form of nudity...
6. ...and of course, porn.
7. Employees don't know when the new devices are coming out...
8. But when they do come out, employees usually get first dibs.

17. ...but there are also few things as exciting as a launch day.
18. When people come in with issues regarding their stuff, the problem is usually remarkably easy to fix...
19. ...while other times there is little to no hope.
20. A lot of the customers can be downright rude, abrasive, and make you question humanity.
21. But cool customers, and kickass co-workers totally make the job worthwhile.
