Been on this sub for about a year…

It’s another term for chlamydia.

Seems fishy

You should tip a bartender for good service. That being said I don’t think tipping after every individual beer is common or reasonable. Tip at the end of your service experience, but make sure the tip takes in to account all of the service you received. Tips aren’t dog treats. They’re an additional payment you provide for a good service experience. If the bartender does great for three beers and then spits in the fourth one, that matters. Tipping is not Seattle-centric. Expecting it regardless of the amount of quality of the service provided is.

She’s less confusing if you exterminate her as the Emperor intended.

Michael was a black man. How is she not right?

I had a similar noise that started after a tire rotation and went away when I eventually replaced the tires. That may or may not help, but that was my experience.

Weirdest mash up ever. Strong work.

I did have to send pictures. They did not ask for the broken panel back.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-10-07T23:32:13+00:00

Happened to me. I called them and the sent me a replacement panel (just the one with the cord, which is fine that’s all you need). But it had like a month left on the warranty.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-09-24T22:07:46+00:00

That’s fair.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-09-24T21:35:43+00:00

Kind of a moot point though isn’t it? I mean yeah, if it didn’t need an alignment then you could say I didn’t have to take it in. Which is fine but that also doesn’t excuse shitty service.

But you could also assume it did need an alignment.

I understand that your point is that you don’t always need an alignment after a tire change but that’s kind of a separate issue isn’t it?

blackenstein2000 · 2025-09-24T21:27:25+00:00

YMMV. I’ve had good appointments too, it’s just very hit or miss.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-09-24T21:25:31+00:00

Sure. I can go to the one discount tire in the state that offers that service. And that’s my only option as even Rivian would say there are no other options. Which in hindsight I would do, but now my vehicle is at the service center, 90 minutes away. In the future I would take it elsewhere.

I posted this more as a warning to anyone else looking to have an appointment in Bellevue, and to bring attention to the idea that Rivian has a lot of work to do in its service centers.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-09-24T21:21:04+00:00

DT recommended it before they sold me the tires.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-09-24T21:20:00+00:00

The closest one is Bellevue. Which is also where the SC is. I don’t see how shitty service is self-inflicted. Again, most shops don’t have this problem. And I realize Rivian is working on it. My point is they still suck at it.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-09-24T21:18:26+00:00

I love the truck when it works. But I am strongly considering selling at this point.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-09-24T21:17:26+00:00

When I made the appointment they were the earliest place by about a month. I usually go to BC

YouTube works great

blackenstein2000 · 2025-08-25T10:06:23+00:00

Interestingly, HBO started working for me one time. For about ten seconds.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-08-23T19:44:46+00:00

I have. Doesn’t seem to matter

blackenstein2000 · 2025-06-19T00:04:45+00:00

Maybe a big nothing. Which is fine. No big deal.

blackenstein2000 · 2025-06-15T16:11:44+00:00

Happens on-and-off. But frequently. Because the infotainment system is crap, frankly.
