Why does Apple hire such unprofessional looking employees?

No particular reason, but you are right that tattoo can be professional looking just as short hair can suck too.

What I DO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH is finding people who actually KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT who works at Apple. Instead they hire people with "degrees" and "Best Buy Sales experiences" rather than the people who actually knows about Apple stuff.
and where else can you walk into a store had have people clapping at you...happy to see you...oh yeah...Wal-mart.
I dont think the OP is necessarily putting down people with tattoos and long hair - or maybe he is - but i think the point is that the people in the stores dont even look nice. I mean, you can have long hair and tattoos and still look respectable, but half the people in apple stores look like a bunch of losers who smell bad and probably dont know what the words soap and toothpaste are. Seriously, i dont think half the people at the apple store me take showers, there have been numerous times the employees smelled like BO. And the people in the apple stores do have that attitude like, "i'm better than you because i work at an apple store and use apple products and they are cooler than PCs" like honestly i wish i could tell them to get on their f'n knees. Maybe it's just my local store, but the employees really dont treat you very well and they act like morons. LIke someone else mentioned earlier - they just stand around and talk to each other. I could rant and rave but i would end up getting way off topic and losing my train of thought and people would criticize my post and....
screw apple store employees

That is hilarious!But look, one of these people is actually a Mac, you can turn him on. Luckily, he doesn't turn me on.

Maybe some day when you are all grown up you will realize that discriminating against someone based on their looks only makes you look like a total ass in the end.
my apple store is actually very good, they are nice and decently knowledgable. some are not too apple smart (i feel i know more) but they get the job done.
I have a buddy who works for apple and he has a "chin tuft." He also, at one point, had a mo-hawk. I asked him about this and he said that Apple "wants you to express yourself." I personally have no problem with what someone looks like as long as they're courteous and knowledgeable, which has been my experience at the Apple store.
I don't know if anyone caught the Pixar special that was on A&E (I think) the other night, but if Apple conducts themselves like Pixar did in their beginnings then this makes sense. They were riding around on scooters, playing games, it was a free-for-all.
