I drove into the customer parking garage and there was a short Asian man in a buggy waving his flashlight and yelling at people. After I parked my car and walked toward the stairs, which were behind a blue door, I tried to ease the tension by giving him a nod and a smile. All he said to me in response was “BLUE DOOR!” Hate this interaction for several reasons. 1. Apple cares about the retail experience, but can’t even deliver a good one at their flagship store at headquarters. Yes, the security staff are part of the experience too. 2. The Asian security guy tarnishes the reputation of Asians. Not only is he working a shitty job (because he goofed in school), he cannot demonstrate emotional maturity and he must power trip from his post at security in a freakin’ garage. 3. I know how high end private security works. I guarantee you do not have to be an asshole to be effective at the job. In fact, you generally have to be NOT an asshole to be a top performer.
Holy shit u made a long post just to complain about this..?
^ Asian security guard spotted
Not sure why you are making a big deal about him being ASIAN. It’s just a bad experience you had. Don’t over judge it
Hi Karen!
How did you get a license to drive? You seem to be younger than 16 years old.
Asian security and police officers are the worst. Think they are God’s gift
I’m going to hit you with a hard truth that is going to be hard to swallow: you are the bigger a**hole in this story. Also, why would nod and smile instead of just smile? I only nod at people I know
maybe you should give this feedback to Apple directly instead of posting it on an anonymous forum where no one reading it can act on it
Maybe you look like a bum and everyone expects you to shoplift or break into some cars? Post a selfie and we’ll let you know.
I had a little bit of empathy for you until you said this: “The Asian security guy tarnishes the reputation of Asians. Not only is he working a shitty job (because he goofed in school)”. Calling out his demeanor is one thing. Treating him like he’s inferior because of his profession is out of line. Everyone needs to pull their weight in society and this is his contribution.

I was given bad experience there as an employee. Judged by your name I assume you are Asian too and thus might call out his race. I didn’t like the experience but I put it behind me quickly. FYI: I interacted with a Secret Service agent during a political event in the past (I was carrying a questionable item) but they treated me with respect and grace without disturbing/disrupting my experience. I guess the event was somewhat important and they didn’t want trouble
