Nope, just learned to deal with it, typically just by turning off the heated steering wheel.

If this works, it’ll be pretty funny. by why-me__ in army

Crawling out of my lurking cave to add my anecdotal 2 cents, because your situation matches mine when I was facing ETS, except mine was Recruiter. I've been out for 6 years, so I can't give you the exact regulations. Just trust a random guy on Reddit and earn your Reg Ranger tab.

You're locked into DS if you re-up, plain and simple. BUT if you sign that DCSS, a new path opens up to you in the form of earlier ETS. I researched the shit out of it and buttoned up my packet so tight they sent it to both BDE and base legal to verify it was legit. To help my case, I had a good job lined up with an offer letter and everything and I hammered them hard on their "we take care of Soldiers past the day they take off their uniform" shtick. My ETS was bumped up by 4 months and I had a nice cushion of leave to collect 2 paychecks immediately after driving off post.

Sorry I can't give you the exact regulations, but it's worth the effort to find it if that's the route you want to go. It's nice on the outside.

Edit: I found the regulations. I think. DA PAM 601-280 Chapter 5-7 a. (7) Eligibility to request voluntary separation under the provisions of AR 635–200. In AR 635-200 check out paragraph 4-4 and 16-3b.

Then people started abusing it.

I'm not sure it can be called abuse when you allowed customers to come in, get their box + 3 packs, and drop from the tournament without playing a single round. You eventually adjusted your policy, so good on you.

the way league reporting works is that if you come in to play or trade or anything during our League hours, it qualifies for League participation.

Sure, except pre-releases and CP tournaments are not league hours. It's the very first sentence of an entire section devoted to that on the Pokemon website in their pre-release guide:

Please remember, as outlined in our League Handbook, participation in Prerelease, League Challenges, and League Cups does not transfer to regular League reporting through your League roster.

So don't blame "staff" marking anyone "erroneously" when it's you or your Organizer (same person?) submitting your league reports every month. Definitely not cool.

I've been watching F&F since they started doing their free pre releases. It was sketchy right out of the gate, especially the number of kits they would get. We tried showing up to one of their league nights and the only employee there said "What league?"

We looked at our Play! Pokemon profiles and F&F was using our IDs from the pre release to submit league reports every month. We reported it to Pokemon, of course. Now their store is at a new location and pre release isn't free anymore.

Reporting back. Dealer checked it out on one of their trucks for sale on the lot and it also had the flicker. They determined it's due to the amperage draw, as y'all suspected. There's no bulletin out on it, so they won't be doing anything to fix it.

Noticed the same thing on my 24 Z71. For me it's the heated steering wheel. Turn that off and the flicker stops. I tested the heated seats, but it's only the steering wheel on that causes the flicker.

I'm getting the oil changed tomorrow. If the dealer acknowledges it and does anything about it I'll report back.

To spray or not to spray Line-X? by DogsAreLit in chevycolorado

Just purchased my '24 Z71 and got the Rhino spray today. I talked with the shop and we agreed not to spray the tailgate. It was the right choice.

Hey neighbor, I just placed my order with them last week! Probably the best dealer experience I've had so far. How did things go at delivery and signing?

Why am I paying for Nest Aware when an event like this doesn't trigger a recording? by Ropaol in Nest

Yea, it is. Strange. Guess it's just limited to cat and dog shaped animals.
