This has not been my experience at all. I walk in (or make an appt beforehand for the sake of convenience), tell the what I want, plop down my credit card, and I am out of there in 20 minutes tops. Super smooth, professional experience.

Twenty minutes sounds like a long time to walk in, get something you already know you want, pay, and walk out.

Apple brings my snark out. After I went through all the BS to buy the base airpod for my kid, from the store, I then requested a printed receipt rather than give them my email addr.

Apparently the apple store near my house rarely gives people paper receipts anymore. It took 10+ mins for the poor sales drone to try every table in the store before he found the one that could actually still print receipts.

So I got to be the smart ass who said on the way out "goodness printing a receipt isn't that complex, i thought apple was a technology company."

Longer than it took me to show up at the Chinese restaurant last night, decide on an order, pay, wait for them to cook the food, and walk out with it.

Oof. Have to agree here. I admit I get impatient at times when it takes me more than 5 minutes to walk out of a Best Buy with an online order.
