2nd Land’s End. It’s an easy hike and you can see the Pacific, Sutro Barth’s, Ocean Beach, GG Beach etc.

Also recommend Muir Woods across the bridge for a great hike. It’s not too strenuous

Stinson Beach up to Mt Tam is a bit tougher with a crapton of switchbacks. But you can reward yourself with a great view.

You can then go to Berkeley, the Grizzly Peak trail will give you an awesome view of the Bay Area

You can also take the Ferry to Sausalito, it’s pretty chill

Point Reyes National Seashore. 1.5 hour drive from SF. There should still be some baby seals at their Drake's Beach. 13 miles in-and-out with wild elk, foxes, quail-like animals. Breathtaking views of the Pacific. Easily my favorite and most memorable day trip.

Depends on what you're into. Napa/Sonoma are only an hour north, unless you're planning on just staying in the city.

How many points? Caribbean Marriott Cat 3 property, 5 nights. They have an issue with the boiler so no hot water and shower stops in between. Ice cold showers for 4 days in a row 🥶. Hotel phones don’t work because network is down and only local channels work on tv. Last night they had a huge leak in the lobby. They kept knocking stuff all night to fix it and then left a large floor fan running. I understand it’s tough reopening so don’t want to push, plus they upgraded our room at check in.

Hi Fishes,

I applied to one of the roles and after initial screening I happened to see in the website that there are no suitable openings for my profile.

I heard that the cool off period is six months. Does that apply to my situation because I didn't attend any interview.

Can I use referals to apply before 6 months? Or should I wait for 6 more months?

Thanks for your help.

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
