However, as it turned out, it was not originally supposed to be like this, because Steve Jobs was very skeptical about this proposal.

The information was heard in the podcast Decode Recode, where the former head of the retail department mentioned it Applu, Ron Johnson. When he was with the idea Genius BarWhen first introduced, his reaction was completely negative.

"But that's a stupid idea, it will never work!"

During the podcast, Johnson talked about how it was in the case Genius Bar"It looked like."I remember very vividly the day I went to see Steve and first mentioned the idea to him. Genius Baru, as a concept for Apple stores. His response was blunt and negative – “it’s stupid and it’s never going to work.” Jobs continued, “… Rone, you probably have a good idea in the end, but there's one snag that just can't work. I've never met someone who is both tech-savvy and really good at communicating with people. They're all geeks, so you could call it that. maxideally like Geek Bar."

Johnson's response was a counterargument that the youth of the time grew up in a different era and their approach to technology was significantly different from that of Jobs' youth. He did not let Jobs' negative attitude deter him and the next day he filed a request for registration of the term "Genius Bar". How is that?oneWe all know how it turned out. It took some time, but today it is Genius Bar an elementary part of the majority Apple Stores.
