apple store junkies sworn to secrecy??

so i walked into the apple store the other day with my bro, who was ever-so-kindly buying his girlfriend a 400 dollar iTouch for her birthday.....

some guy came out and helped us, seemed like a normal dude.
me, being the curious person that i am, decide to ask him, "hey man, you like working here?"

the same guy that was so talkative and charismatic about selling us some high tech device suddenly becomes quiet and almost reticent, and says "mmm... yea"

so i just figured he is just the type who likes to keep it down to business. no big. but i still want answers. I ask him another question: "do they pay you well over here?"
his reply, being of a non-verbal kind, was actually a snicker, a sort of withheld arrogant laugh, where a smirk was stretched across his face, soon before he looked away

so at this point im thinking DAMN i gotta investigate
In turn i ask him again, "no really, how much do they pay you?"
he replies
"oh, enough"

....and walks away with the iTouch in hand so he can ring it up


now, im sure that they arent supposed to disclose their payrate. ive worked retail before and thats usually one thing that youre not supposed to talk about, but the way he did it left me trippin....
has anyone ever worked at an apple store? i really want to know how much they get payed lol i thought it would be like most retail (8-12 bucks an hour + discounts)
but this guy is making me think they make 20 bucks an hour and get a free iPod a month haha

in any case, i tried asking other people a couple different times...
and its almost like THEY ARE SWORN TO SECRECY, i swear. i mean, i wasnt even being too enquiring. i was just curious.

CLIFFNOTES (cuz everyone likes them)
i go to apple store
make small talk, ask guy how much he gets paid
guy laughs at me like im ignorant and never answers question
i now think the apple store is a conspiracy/the culprits for 911
I WANT TO KNOW HOW MUCH THEY ARE PAID!
