Pretty funny, though I don’t really think of the Apple Store help staff as ‘Apple Employees’ proper. They kind of a sattelite operation … mainly because a) they’re not engineers b) they don’t make anything c) they’re kind of out of the loop, for obvious reasons.
Actually, I should correct myself here: they make something.. lots and lots and lots of money.
