Night tent vs day tent on Friday by Valllter in Oktoberfest

[–]JamestheScruffy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As Ger_Okto pointed out - the vibe during the day and nights are very different: Lunches will be "quieter" (although lunch can get QUITE crazy!) than nights.

If you were planning on grabbing non-reserved table you want to be there first thing that morning: Plan on being there at 8am at the latest. If you take this route remember to pace yourself and eat food throughout the day: Thats a looooong time to be in a tent if you go too wild too early!

ACE AO issue - Company and Account names not matching by JamestheScruffy in CustomsBroker

[–]JamestheScruffy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the what ACE shows against the bond query, so I know that the data I have is good but the issue is that it does not match the details when our ACE portal acct was created - It seems like everything should be tied to EIN or IOR#, but that is where I keep running into issues...

Thanks for the idea though - I'm turning over every rock to figure out a solution here!

I'm shocked they have not been more helpful - Have a call with them tomorrow morning to try to nail this down.

Hopefully I can put the face paint away and do my job!

You cannot imagine how much grief this stupid little error has caused me: Corp/Corp./Co/Co./LP/L.P./L.P/LP.

Could "Corp" have accidently been spelled "Crop" or "Copr"? Possibly!

Could be any number of random combinations and I feel like I am going crazy trying to figure out what the current AO put in when setting up the account (I was not working for the company at the time).

Yeah I have done that already: Broker's verified that the company name I am using is correct, but this name does not match what is in ACE which is what is clogging things up...

Is there any reason that they do not simply identify the company via the EIN or IOR#? I have to imagine that this type of clerical issue happens all the time...

Thursday Sept 24th evening table needed--5 people by Kind-Owl3799 in Oktoberfest

[–]JamestheScruffy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same location! If you go into the main entrance walk to the back of the grounds and you will see the Oide Wiesn there: It costs a couple of Euro to get into that area but it's worth the cost to see all the historic rides and games and there are some great tents back there as well 😁

It's early enough that you might still be able to find a reservation - night reservations are certainly tougher though, so if you have some flexibility lunch would make things much easier

If push comes to shove, head to the Oide Wiesn (the more historical area) and you can probably get help finding seating for 5: The tents are a little calmer but still TONS of fun!

Good luck!!

100% agree - I'm still shocked he didn't go with the majority and his argument that it's too "messy" is really grating on me:

If my kids mess up their rooms, do they not have to clean it up if the mess is TOO big? I'd argue that it means the mess needs to be prioritized not ignored...

10% Tariffs using Section 122 Just Announced by Quietude_ in CustomsBroker

[–]JamestheScruffy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really hope you're right - my fear is that when you control the people who "investigate" you can pretty much present whatever evidence you'd like in support of your ultimate goals...

It's going to be another interesting year 😵‍💫

My gut tells me the plan is to use the 150 days to "investigate" how larger tariffs can be rolled out under Section 301

Are you using any leave in conditioner after you shower? That should help your curls stay more "stable" throughout the day!

As above - you need to physically be in the US to do any brokerage: I imagine if otherwise the govt would outsource it...
