THE GOAT HAS SPOKEN!
I ordered a Apple iPhone 6Plus 128GB GOLD on Nov 11, 2014 through my local AT&T store. I was told 6-8 weeks for delivery! I ordered a Samsung Galxy Note 4 for my wife and it came in the mailbox to her hand the next day!
My hands are both still very, very empty. Well, not entirely, I am holding my iPhone 3GS 32 Gb Black. 😟
Based on what I have read online, I am going to be waiting a long time to get my new iPhone 6 Plus. Apparently, there is a world-wide shortage and what stock they do have is going to China right now to coax along that new booming market. (I will not rant, at this time, about China's impact on American markets and on our employment opportunities. No, I will save that for the next election cycle...lol). I just want my phone... gimmie my phone dammit!
My expected delivery date is 12/22/2014 to 01/01/2015. There has been not one change to this date. I was hoping it might come earlier but I have resigned myself to not getting it before Christmas.
Helloo-oo??
You would think they could have a couple hundred million of these things ready, so I don't have to wait. Sheesh! How hard can it be to invent the world's most innovative device and get half billion of them to market ON TIME PEOPLE!!?
Meanwhile there are 50,000 people in Singapore working their ***** off around the clock for a $1 a day in sweatshop factories, so fat lazy, unemployed americans like me can sit around and b!tch on facebook why their next pricey apple device, one of many expensive luxuries we already own, is taking a fair amount of time to reach their grubby little mits... So they can go on yelp and find the best Korean food truck in their town and check in from there... and post a picture of their high fat, high cholesterol meal for all the world to see.
While the working people in Singapore making 500,000,000 iPhones 6's don't even have enough time to make a decent bowl of rice and enjoy it... or enjoy anything for that matter cause they are being forced into working 96 hour weeks to make hundreds of millions of back-ordered iPhones! Dog Gone it! I just want my **** phone! They need to hurry up! LOL!
I mean, seriously?
BREATHE!!! REMEMBER WHAT THE GOAT SAID!!!
