First date with someone who absolutely hated Apple started talking about getting a smart phone (this was around 2010) and how she should probably get an iPhone cause it's better but boy does she hate Apple.

I'm just sitting there, can't believe this moment is happening cause it's the sort of thing you'd see scripted in a movie or tv show. She finishes hating Apple and asks btw what do I do?

"I work for Apple on the iPhone."

She practically choked she was so surprised, laughing, and feeling embarrassed. We ended up dating for a while and remained friends after.
