May a herd of AIDS infected metrosexuals...
...invade the Les Schwab store in Auburn!
On Thursday, I went in to make an appointment for Friday.
I needed 6 tires, at $160 a pop, and a front end alignment.
"How's 2pm for you?"
"Fine. I'll be here at 2pm."
Get to Les Schwab yesterday at 1:55pm & informed the assclown behind the counter that I have an appointment.
Assclown: "OK. What are we doing to your car?"
Oaf: "It's a truck."
Assclown:"Ok."
Oaf:"I need six tires & a front end alignment."
Assclown:"OK."
I hand him the keys, he passes them off to the wrench pilot who'll be working on my rig.
After seeing my rig is pulled into a stall, I grap a bag of fresh popcorn.
Mr Assclown approaches me & says "there's a problem."
Oaf: "Oh? What's up?"
Assclown:"We have another alignment scheduled for 3pm & it's gonna take 1.5 hrs to mount your tires, then 1.5 hrs for your alingment."
Annoyed Oaf: "I suggest that you call the 3pm appointment and cancel/postpone it."
Assclown: "I can't do that...they made an appointment."
Annoyed Oaf: "I have an appointment, & you just informed me that you can't do the alignment. In fact, yesterday when I came in & made the appointment, you offered me either 1pm, 2pm, 3pm, or 4pm for the alignment. You knew at that time that I was having 6 tires installed prior to the alignment. Why do I have to be inconvenienced due to your poor time management skills?"
Assclown: "What?"
Annoyed Oaf: "I'm not going to let your lack of time management skills inconvenience me. We had a contract; You would provide goods & service, I was to provide the cash. You can't perform your part of the contract & that's an inconvenience. What are you going to do about it?"
Assclown: "Umm...you can leave your truck here & pick it up tomarrow."
Annoyed Oaf: "No. How about I take my truck somewhere else?"
Assclown: "But you made an appointment..."
Annoyed Oaf: "Look, dimwit (yes, I called him a dimwit). I have an appointment for services that you just told me you can't perform...."
Assclown: " Why do you want an alignment anyway?"
Annoyed Oaf: "You just interrupted me. But to answer your question, it matters not why I want an alignment. Plus, you're a tire monkey, you know how a proper alignment increases tire life & ride quality. Just like your magical siping process improves tires grip/life."
I tell him to just mount the tires & throw the siping, which he charged me $70 for, in for free.
Assclown says he can't do that.
At this point, I wave him away, telling him that Schwab HQ will be getting a letter from me, explaining his poor performance.

****in dimwits.
I hate Les Schwab. I took my first car there when I was 16 and they can kiss my ****ing ***. I'll never go back.
I've always been very happy with Americas Tire, though they can be a PITA since they don't do alignments :|

les schwab sucks!!
I ordered some tires from them. they told me it would take 3 days to get the tires there so i made an appointment to bring my car back at a later time. I though this store was cool because one of their employees drives a white sti. a day later i got a call telling me that they cannot get the tires for a month. So i called different tire retailer, they have them in stock and made an appointment. Within two hours of that call i had new tires and 80.00 cheaper in price than les schwab.
