    I get my MacBooks from employers. That’s it.

    They’re way better than the shitbox windows machines most companies hand out.

    Never buy Mac shit yourself

      I keep asking my IT department for the top-end MacBook Pro, but they keep denying my request. They always go on and on about how I am a Team Lead on the production line, and that there is no legitimate reason as to why I would need any laptop at all. Bunch of penny pinchers if you ask me. Hell, I’ve been asking for a company card since my interview! They laugh every time I bring it up—It’s like this some big joke. Though to be fair, they said if I show up on time each day to work, I get to keep my job.

        Why are you asking IT for these things, isn’t this a request for idk accounting or some other department that is about spending money?

          Shit that’s a great idea! I should make a presentation, just to really “wow” them. I could show it at our next safety and wellness meeting. I’m not invited to those meetings, but I’m sure they wouldn’t mind!

      Same. I’d never buy one, but man are they nicer than anything else I’ve had.
