Especially a place like Apple, which is pretty popular.
I'm not sure working in an Apple store gets your foot in the door as much as you think it would. Its like being a usher for the Saddledome and thinking you might be able to get a try-out contract from Darryl.

Yeah, good points. My plan (as it stands now) is to finish the first year at DeVry and then transfer to UofC and finish my degree through them. As for the Apple Retail -> Apple Headquarters thing... That's in the back of my mind too. I'm going to talk to them about that on Sunday. I think your Usher -> Player analogy thing might be pretty accurate, so I want to make sure first.
Aside from all of that, though, thanks for actually commenting on the topic.
