30% raise to a client in industry. Should I take it? I asked my firm to provide a counter. I like the client, but I'm not associated with it. Those who are say it's a wet dumpster 🔥.

How do you have a wet dumpster 🔥 ? If it’s wet won’t it be hard to burn?

My previous response to this comment was not only reported, but also deleted.

I just want to indicate to all the PC folks out there that I was told the dumpster Is burning so hot 🔥 that I was told even if I put out the fire that the management team would hold me responsible for prior issues tax wise.

Airlines should gameify reducing emissions by rewarding flyers with discounts/coupons/miles/etc if we choose a route with a certain % lower emissions. Reason being, most people don't "really" care about saving the environment enough to inconvenience themselves or prioritize their airplane emissions over factors like duration and arrival time, but introduce basic incentives and more people will seek the greenest routes just to save a few bucks, or at least consider it a major priority.
