Match to the one that minimizes connections. If you live in an AA or UA hub, you might want to consider them instead for example.

I’ll be in Seattle

I have MVP Gold with Alaska and Platinum with Delta. I also live in Seattle.
Alaska benefits: Better seats, better food, easy change of flights, better miles value
Delta: better entertainment, better lounge, easier to get upgrades for Seattle flights

Clearly I couldn't choose one over the other, so I went for mid-tier status with both. It also depends on where you are flying to. For example, 90% of flights from Seattle to Texas are Alaska

Delta

Alaska! You can do the match with Delta, but Alaska is by far my favorite domestic carrier. But also depends where you live. I'm in a hub city so it's great for me (except sometimes when I fly to a diff airport hub I can have fewer options)

Hello - thinking of starting a small side coaching practice. Could use a bit of help because I've never thought about opening a side hustle but times are tough with two kids in college.

1. What is the best approach to collecting your fee? Each session? Pay the package cost upfront,? Other, and if so, what is it?
2. How do you collect it? Venmo? Credit card?
3. Do you have to register your business?

Thank you in advance for any guidance.

Anyone deal with this before: I inherited a severely under developed team including a sr analyst who clearly was doing the bare minimum, if that. Over the last 6 months I have had to coach him and correct simple mistakes in his work and recently it got so bad that I told him he would receive a low rating in his evaluation. He lashed out, involved HR saying he doesn’t understand why, and now my review points out stuff that I would have let slide.
