Hi there - we live in Chicago and have been renting and staying in a luxury rental building would like advice on the below situation - there has been an ongoing bathroom leak issue since 6 months and the building management has been lax and delayed with their response and assistance. We are too frustrated as it is causing mounds and unlivable environment. Would like to educate ourselves with renters right. Also, should we consult a lawyer? Any recommendations? Can renters insurance be useful?

Stuck between two jobs. I have a job offer from a Big4 and also have an operations job offer from a pretty reputable bank. I've done research into consulting and I'm pretty hesitant on the chaos, WLB, and politics that goes into it. The operations role seems a lot more stable and lax, but not sure if l'm giving up a lot by playing it safe. The C job also pays about 15k more than the Ops job.
Any insight from current/former Cs or people who have been in similar situations?

Hi - Tried googling this but there’s no definitive answer also asking here.

If I need “10 one-way” flights for a status challenge, does a layover count as 1 “one-way” - I.e., going from SFO to PHX if I were to do SFO - LAX - PHX would that be 2 “one-way” flights?

This challenge is for Delta if that matters.
