Apple is quietly denying requests for employee vacations during the second week of October, hinting that the company currently anticipates an influx of customers to its stores around that time related to availability of its new iOS 5 and fifth-generation iPhone products.
The exact dates are from October 9th through October 12th and October 14th through October 15th are restricted from any vacations.
The first set of dates are expected to be mainly for AppleCare due to the release of iOS 5. The second set of dates are expected to be in preparation for the release of the next generation iPhone, whether it be the iPhone 4S or the iPhone 5. The anticipated launch date is Friday October 14th.
This will all become factual on October 4th when Apple holds a media event to announce the next generation iPhone as well as the official launch of iOS 5.
It’s a tough job but somebody has to do it I suppose!! Maybe Apple will make up for it and give all the employees free iPhone 5′s as an added bonus for their service!
