    I bet they are from DC area. People need to regulate the hell out of everything here like they need oxygen. It's in the culture and it's annoying as shit.

    My home borders a HOA neighborhood, and my yard partly borders that of the HOA president. They’ve tried pulling so much bullshit to coerce me into joining their HOA or implying with their HOA regs, and it started from day one. I hear the doorbell ring, and they introduce themselves by saying, “We’re on the board of directors for your HOA. Are your parents around?”, so I told them my parents are in Wisconsin and I don’t live with them, so then they asked if my husband was around, and I told them that I don’t live with one of those, either. So they tried to get me to sign some paperwork, which I just took from them and shredded. I’ve received notifications of violations from them as if I were part of their HOA, then there was the issue with the fence… they tried claiming that part of my fence went a few inches into their yard, but the surveyor found that, while this was true for part of it, part of their fence also went into my yard, and if we altered the fence to be accurate to the property lines, they’d be in violation of their own HOA ordinance because it wouldn’t be parallel to the side of their house anymore. It finally got to the point where I had to record every interaction with them, I’ve had the police trespass their board members off of my property, and I had to get a lawyer to tell them to give it a rest. Now I have radio aerials installed on my house and I’ve been parking a rollback wrecker in my driveway on weekends, and they’re absolutely pissed about it, and even moreso because there’s nothing they can do about it.

    I have a feeling you are the last person on earth they want to be at war with - like PDG's HOA example they'll just wind up looking foolish

    They have a lot more resources at their disposal than I do, so it’s a two-way street there.

    I'd appreciate some input on this update detailing my nightmare Precor experience.
    I haven't posted it yet because I'm not sure I'm striking the right tone. I don't want to sound whiny or libelous, but I have to convey how pissed I am while remaining somewhat civil. I've gone over it to shorten it as much as possible.

    I just can't get over the Coronavirus stuff. Three different guys in my home without so much as a mask, when the pandemic was in full swing. They didn't even use the hand sanitizer I put out while they were touching the machine, which they didn't bother to wipe down.

    An elliptical is the best exercise for my bad knee and my anxiety, and there are few other choices.

    ETA: I realize some of this may be unclear out of context.

    I received a very disappointing e-mail from Precor. The tone was condescending, unlike the note below. Maybe I'm overreacting. Or maybe I'm tired of the way this company treats a customer after they've taken their money. I responded with a brief and polite request for clarification on 3/30. No reply.

    The gist of the e-mail was that one store manager was the only person that could do what should have been done FIVE MONTHS ago. He hasn't.

    I'd like to clear a few things up.

    1) I am AWARE of the distinction between Corporate Precor and the franchise. I was confused because Corporate answered my inquiries, spoke with me on the phone for an hour, and sent a tech. It wasn't until THREE MONTHS later that they would no longer help.

    2) I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE STORE AND SPOKEN TO THE MANAGER REPEATEDLY. My situation has not improved.

    3) Keep in mind that the store's floor model was BROKEN IN EXACTLY THE SAME WAY. That makes three. Coincidence?

    4) I *never* expected that "daily updates" to Trustpilot (more like three or four over several weeks) were sent to the store. That's absurd. I will post as many updates as I please.

    5) I don't know what Precor means by "incorrect contact info." I gave them three different means.

    6) I will again state how furious I was when three people came to my home with no regard for the pandemic. There is a vulnerable adult in the house. I called the store on 4/3. They didn't seem concerned, but said the tech would take precautions and they would call back. They didn't. Putting me through five months of anxiety and frustration while depriving me of my primary means of exercise was bad enough.

    7) I truly don't understand Precor's disrespectful attitude. I've put a lot of time and money into trying to get this machine to work. That's supposed to be Precor's job.

    The actual update: the machine is getting WORSE. Previously, I'd been able to get a barely passable workout by cycling through the levels for a few minutes. Now, it's dropping resistance during a workout so that it is almost nothing by twenty minutes. Again, the tech said the resistance was "fine."

    They need to put someone like this in the movies - or in a show - they would logically exist, so if actors exist to play them they should.

    So weird, since I became a gym rat starting about this time a year ago, I've gone from much preferring to workout at midnight to late afternoon/early evening. It's the sun, I like a little sun in there. For a lifelong vampire, this is strange.

    But the little bitch boy downstairs complains about EVERYTHING with noise. Midnight workouts are right out now

    For two years the motherfucker whines and bitches. Part of the reason I joined the gym.

    The last time was the last straw, as I wasn't doing anything but getting ready for work Three nights in a row he said, and was threatening to move out.

    What's kind of funny is that I recently started working from home for them to keep a steady income source going in these lean times. I receive tons of angry customers demanding to know why their items are not being delivered. There were quite a few complaints with orders that contained toys of the adult variety and someone who was very upset about not being able to get a rather large tube of flavored lubricant. I had to explain that only essential items such as food, masks, hand sanitizer, or toilet paper are being shipped, while suppressing the urge to agree with the customers. Sorry, fellow camgirls and other sex workers.
