LAX

Has anyone moved to Britain from the US? I’m trying to move but unsure about the process. Are visa regulations more lax or am I going to be in a limbo like the US?

Anyone fly out of LAX recently? Have a flight Wednesday afternoon. Can’t imagine wait times are long? Have precheck.

Has anyone flown domestic into LAX recently and had to fill out the entry form? Do they collect it at the airport or does anyone even check if you've done it?

Has anyone been able to use their Delta upgrade certificates on DeltaOne flights? Looking at JFK-LAX but it says certificates can't be redeemed for the fight

Best place to rent a car at LAX?

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?

If you are flying from NYC to LAX, are you required to quarantine BEFORE your flight?

Totally anecdotal but has anyone noticed if H1B transfers have become a bit more lax (less rfes etc) since election? About to go through a transfer and wondering if the removal of trump will lower chance of audit and delays (will be PP)

Can someone help me understand why a person who’s biggest reasons (high taxes, high cost of living, and strict lockdown laws) for moving away from their left leaning home state (CA & NY) to a right leaning state (TX&FL) that has little to no state income taxes, low cost of living, and lax lockdown laws still vote left when its those left leaning principles that have driven them out of their home state in the first place? Do they not realize theyre biting the hand that feeds them?

My friends and family think I have a tendency to be a little neurotic... anyone else in this boat? Any advice? I definitely have anxiety and can be a worrier but I’m not weird about cleaning or anything and I don’t let these worries hold me back from actually doing anything (besides covid stuff, and even then I’ve been on the lax side and go to stores and such).

I'm really focused on my career and on advancement, and have been interviewing at other companies for better opportunities. My fiancée wants me to stay at my current company because of the WL balance since it's a pretty lax job and allows me to spend time with my kid, but I want more out of my job. I just feel so stagnant. Should I just wait it out?

Extended family (live in the same neighborhood) wont stop "popping by" like once a week. They do not take COVID seriously and on top of that, they recently started sending their kids to school in-person. Parents get defensive with me and fall under the pressure of actually letting them inside the house (not garage or backyard) so that they dont offend the relatives. The relatives wear masks but they start getting lax (take it off or keep their nose exposed)...cont.

Quetions for parents travelling LAX-EWR-BOM next week.
1.What is the best option to get a COVID test done without insurance?
2.Can I submit the air suvidha exemption form now and upload the test results on the day of boarding or the request has to be initiated only after we give sample for testing i.e. within 72 hrs of boarding?
Would greatly appreciate if someone with recent travel experience shed some light on the above or willing to chat. Thanks

Is a 36 minute layover enough time at LAX? Not familiar with the layout of the airport. Think worst case scenario in terms of distance between gates.

AA Exec Plat here. Just flew Delta and they are so so good. Great covid related communication, fully sanitised aircraft, back to front boarding, handed each passenger a wipe upon boarding and offered more later. Flight hasn't even started yet and I'm floored. Their LAX lounge was also open and perfectly planned for the pandemic.

Might have to travel to Hyderabad from LAX for a family emergency. Do you have to travel to India via Vande Bharat mission or can you travel by Emirates etc? Emirates is exorbitant at $3.3k but Vande Barath is a 4 stop flight! Any advice from recent travelers?

I miss flying. I know , once we are back on, I will again complain about TSA lines , delayed flights , baggage claim fiascos, uber drivers , LAX/LGA and my co-passenger’s annoying behavior.

But man, I will take that any day over this

lead developer has a lax typing style but just started typing my name all lowercase everywhere 😬 how bad did I piss him off

Looking to move to Huntington Beach, CA. Thinking about when we start to travel again, can anyone share their experience of the commute to LAX?

LA 🐠 anyone live near the beach (biking/short drive distance) and had a commute to Burbank/Glendale? What’s it like? My SO needs to commute daily to LAX area. We love the beach but when WFH subsides my company will need me commuting to Burbank/Glendale

Are LAX precheck lines open for delta?

Can somebody please explain the concern about a corona uptick in the cold months? I wanted to better understand the science with cold weather and viruses. Is it the increased need to be inside with poor ventilation? Does the virus survive better in the cold? Or is it more that we will continue to lax restrictions and become less careful? Thank you!

Help me Decide: Am Senior PM at a bottom tier, PE-owned niche tech firm on the west coast. Low-effort work environment due to lax leadership and low maturity in PM discipline. Day to day is pretty mellow and I like my coworkers a lot. Making decent $$$ but just got an offer for same title at dev shop that’s about a 15% salary bump, but the org sounds pretty crappy, W/L balance def will be worse. No other incentives aside from base salary. Recently bombed a 2nd round PM interview with a FAANG.

Has anyone applied for Hungarian citizenship as a descendent? The rules seem pretty lax and just wondering how it went. My great g-parents were Hungarian but I have no official Hungarian docs.

Really not sure why I went to law school. I spent all that time and money earning the degree and getting licensed. I now go into work, and while I do enjoy what I do somewhat, I am always stressed and I cant sleep at night because I’m worried about messing something up. I look at my friends who aren’t attorneys and they not only have a much more lax workload and can have more fun during the week, they also make more money than I do. Why am I in this industry again?

Anyone else starting to resent how lax some people are taking social distancing? I’m in NJ and still going hard (for the most part)...are you jealous of people seeing friends? I am... are we fighting

Trying to buy a house. Didnt prequalify for mortgage loan from chase - their credit score requirements have become stringent because of covid. Mine is 680. They need 700 min. Any other banks that might have more lax reqs? Any experiences folks can share?

Fish, have you had a hard time with your parents/in-laws listening to the social distancing guidelines. I live in the same city as my in-laws and they are having happy hours in their driveways, going to parks, etc... we have a small kiddo and they want to see him, but I can’t bring myself to take them over there because they are so lax with social distancing. Has anyone else experienced this?

Balancing a few cases where all seniors employ a hurry-up-and-wait mgmt style. Is this common in your experience? Inability to distribute work thoughtfully seems to be a sign of pretty lax mgmt skills

Has anyone flown back to LAX recently from an International (India) work trip? What testing is being done for Coronavirus? How much additional time should I factor in for that after arrival?
