The Apple Store Was Very Good To Me Today

[Little Red Wagon Repairman]

I hear a lot of bad stuff about Apple. I have criticized them myself. But today, I just picked up my 2015 MacBook Pro from the Apple Store. They put in a new battery/keyboard kit and the bill was to be $200. I get there and the guy doesn't know how to charge me until he found out it was no charge. I not only thanked the guy but told him he bought my big Thanksgiving Dinner plus gave me a $20 tip.

I think the reason for the no charge was because of a recall of some 2015 models. I asked twice previously in the store about it and I was told I wasn't eligible. Whatever the deal is/was I am a very happy camper who has $200 more in my pocket today than I was planning.

You need a new computer. 2015 is ancient.

You insulted my MacBook Pro's feelings age-shaming it being ageist, an agephobe, and anti-aging.

Hopefully it finds a nice shiny iPhone 13 to keep it company.

Considering it's an Apple Store I'm a little surprised they didn't try to sell you an extra monitor, keyboard, and drink coaster for an extra $2,000 to go along with your old $200 MacBook.

The guy I dealt with was just a polite no-pressure gay fella who works for Apple. I mentioned having a wife several times to make sure everything stayed professional.
