The Apple Store in the Beverly Center is “The Dead Zone”. More employees than customers every time I’ve been in there.
One night I heard the employees arguing over who was gonna be sent home early because it was another slow night for them. The employees wanted to stay because all of their hours were being cut short by employees being sent home early on a regular basis.
The few customers that were in the store, were checking their email on the Macs—not many were buying anything.
I bought an iPod case and hit the road.
Having said that, the Apple store was still busier than the SonyStyle Store (also in the Beverly Center) when I popped my head in there. Since the computers in the Sony Store don’t even go online, customers had absolutely no reason to be there.
