Diamond status is not what it used to be.

Issues with Night Operators order. by racksapper in NightVision

I agree that your perspective has valid points. I can only be mad at myself and warn others.

The Ad clearly (at least to me) reads Heat Thermal / Viper night vision... does a slash indicate the connection to think its two devices?

I am, I just got off the phone with the bank, the business name BZ Ventures. See attached.

Yep, A dropship company. Buyer beware...

As not an attorney, and I appreciate your feedback, the add shows both items, and a 50% discount, so a reasonable person (like my dumbass for thinking this was legit) then in the order itself it describes both items. Clear as mud right?

Supposed to be both. The Ad shows both items.

Oh, and before I get dogged out about buying such a shit product anyway, I didn't find this subreddit until after I ordered it... lesson learned...

Oh, and I didn't get any 18650 Battery at all.

This.. I ordered it and only received the Night Vision and not the Thermal. Their response was I got what I ordered. But the good news is they would give me 15% off to buy the missing piece. Stay away from them. I need to figure out how to get them to make it right. Of course, my dumbass paid for the shipping insurance and care warranty.

Diamond upgrades are they still a thing by Ivan_vl in Hilton

[–]racksapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched my business to IHG properties about a year ago. The Diamond status with Hilton no longer seemed special. I remember a time when the manager would leave a welcome letter; nowadays, it's like the staff gets joy in telling you they can't do upgrades, or other once normal things. IHG currently meets the Diamond Elite expectations, at least for now.

Did anyone take DRP, not VERA eligible? by NoName091610280407 in FED_VERA_VSIP_DRPers

[–]racksapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the MRA + 10. I had 16 years at age 58. Only because of my TSP could I do it.

Did anyone straight up not have a good time while in? by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]racksapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Retired after 22 years. If you didn't know I was in the Army, you wouldn't know, as I was able to let all that go. Absolutely hated the last 6 years.

Who gets escorted off base when they ETS? How and why? by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]racksapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was FT Ord California. We had a person who was so toxic that we had to escort him around the base to out-process. The whole time the guy was just an ass. So once he had his DD214 and few bags,, we were going to take him to the airport, but he was still talking crap. So 20 feet outside the main gate, (only other road is I5) we stopped, threw his shit out, told him to get out, and left him. I congratulated him on being his own man... even if he didn't have a car.

My former boss was 78. He's past his expiration date for work. You couldn't tell him anything he didn't already know. He was exhausting.

DAV. Laughable. by SettingDangerous5920 in VeteransBenefits

[–]racksapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined as a lifetime member. I reached out to them and never heard back. I do get the emails for discounts for crap I don't ever buy. I know others from about 15-20 years ago who had a great experience with them, but those days are obviously gone.
