Today I was daydreaming on the Apple.com website and I noticed that there was a "Chat Now" button that would make my life less lonely...
You are chatting with Richard K, an Apple Expert
Hi, my name is Richard K. Welcome to Apple!
Richard K: How may I help you today?
Me: Hi Richard, how are you?
Richard K: I am doing great. How about you?
Me: I'm pretty good. I just ate 3 taquitos. They were sooo good!
Me: You should try them. I got them at Costco
Me: have you ever been there?
Richard K: Awesome.
Richard K: Yes I have.
Me: they have some good deals there
Richard K: Great
Richard K: How may I help you today?
Me: Oh, just browsing. I thought I could use someone to talk to so I don't get too bored!
Me: Do you ever go to Digg.com?
Richard K: This chat is designed to assist Apple customers with product related questions.
Me: oh, I just saw the "Chat Now" button and I thought it meant that I could have someone to just chat with while I browse
Me: Usually I talk to my friend, Beth, but she's with her stupid boyfriend right now : [
Richard K: This mainly to assist our customers with any product related questions. It is not a personal chat service.
Me: Do you have an iPhone?
Richard K: Yes.
Me: Awsome.
Me: Can you trade stocks with it?
Richard K: No you can't but you can check how they are doing.
Me: What about recipes? I always forget the instructions of how to make Macaroni and Cheese...'
Richard K: You can surf the web with the built in web browser for recipes.
Me: Can you give me an example of how fast it can find a recipe for macaroni and cheese?
Richard K: The speed is based on the connection.
Me: Oh. How fast is the connection?
Richard K: You will be using the EDGE network or a Wi-Fi hotspot connection.
Richard K: The EDGE is as fast or a little faster than 56K.
Me: Why is it called "EDGE"?
Richard K: A Wi-Fi hotspot is like a DSL connection.
Me: Look Richard, I'm sick of you beating around the bush about this recipe thing. How fast can I get directions on how to make Kraft Cheese and Macaroni?
Richard K: it is an acronym for Enhanced Data for GSM Evolution.
Richard K: You can get it once you find the recipe on a website.
Me: What website can I get it from?
Me: My cheese is burning! I have to go!
Richard K: You can do a google search for it. That is not something I provide service for.
Thank you for contacting the Apple Store. If you require further assistance, please call 1-800-MY-APPLE.
Me: Oops! It was just my goldfish, Latisha. The Mac and Cheese isn't burnt, but it's really lemony for some reason.
