15+ hours now stuck in JFK. I hate the east coast, and can’t wait to get back to the west coast. At least you can fly through 🔥 and earthquakes

M1- I feel ya, and good too. From now on I’m just changing my flight to the next day and getting a hotel.
P1 - yes, the weather and vibe in west coast is the best

Been stuck at ORD trying to get back to LGA. Was at airport at 4:30pm yesterday, left at 10pm when they ‘delayed’ until 8am today. At airport and flight still delayed...

Why the delays? Due to holiday travel?

Thank you

Got canceled and my new flight tonight is delayed too. Pushing my late checkout big time.

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?
