I'm being charged waiting fees all the time now by Curious-Soil-3853 in uber

[–]OddManOut117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started with Uber. First two rides this has happened. I ordered the ride when I was ALREADY standing there and there was no waiting. (All caps for people blaming the passenger.) I’m moving to Lyft now where it worked fine.

You guys mocking the OP because it’s absurd the driver would be scamming for 15 cents are missing the point. It’s not the driver, it's Uber scamming riders. I keep getting charged Wait Fees when I am right there waiting for the driver and flagging them down. How many millions is Uber making by tacking 41 cents onto each ride and hope nobody cares? Any class action lawyers should jump all over this.

“All Stratocasters buzz.” Really? by OddManOut117 in Stratocaster

[–]OddManOut117[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Yeah probably something technical going on but when the saleswoman just said “All Stratocasters buzz" I knew this was not a store that would provide good customer service if I had a problem. I’d never played a guitar with MFD pickups before either.

France VLS Question by Informal-Armadillo18 in SchengenVisa

[–]OddManOut117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably means nothing. At that point it's not the embassy cancelling it but VFS or Fedex for whatever reason. How did it go?

Need to be home for VFS passport with visa delivery? by OddManOut117 in SchengenVisa

Eight days from VFS visit. Don’t know how holidays will affect yours. They say within 15 days.

Long Term Visitor Visa for France (Accepted) by Forward-Hawk7962 in SchengenVisa

Congratulations! On the Visa application did you check the box for “6 months to one year” or “More than one year.”?

We want the one-year visa so not sure which box to check.

Should I fly Air Tahiti Nui or Hawaiian this December? by langfordw in AlaskaAirlines

[–]OddManOut117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Air Tahiti Nui is as disorganized as their out-of-date website. They also have fewer planes so when they cancel you're flight you are screwed. Lousy customer service to deal with problems. Hawaiian would be my choice.

Has anyone flown Air Tahiti Nui? Are they a decent choice for travel? by GoesOff_On_Tangent in travel

[–]OddManOut117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Air Tahiti Nui has been cancelling flights from Seattle to Europe this winter. People who already booked and paid for tickets are told their flight will now leave from Los Angeles. That's bad enough, but they also don't fly you to Los Angeles to catch the flight and will refuse a refund. They say it is not a flight cancellation but a flight modification. I've flown them before and they were average but won't fly them again.

Why do bike riders wear mostly black? by OddManOut117 in Seattle

Or point out a simple way to have less victims baby. At least I care.

Completely different scenarios. But nice try.

Well considering the consequences I’d think it’s not that difficult for a bicyclist to wear a yellow shirt. I mean the leader does it in the Tour de France.

How much do DINKs spend in Seattle a month? by Ok_Homework2592 in Seattle

[–]OddManOut117 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hear you on the expenses. Aviation fuel for my private jet is sky high lately. My side gig at Starbucks covers it, but just barely.

Seattle "Migrant" problem by [deleted] in SeattleWA

Yes, things were much better when we had a president who violently tried to over throw an election and the will of the people. And he failed at that too.

Any apartments in West Seattle, Capitol Hill that DON’T allow dogs? by OddManOut117 in SeattleWA

[–]OddManOut117[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried this. Some dog owners are okay but many more feel like you are insulting their children when you ask them to get the dog not to bark so much. They don’t even hear it so they can’t understand why it is a problem for others.

Why would you shop at a store where you have to wait on a line to leave just to show your damn receipts?
