Am I wrong to be upset that the Westin didn't upgrade me to a suite after doing it 3 weeks in a row? Or at least upgrading me to a king? I mean 2 queens. Really???

WTF... all I hear is a girl sobbing across these damn walls.. yo go to sleep and shut up, who cares if he forgot what today was - Sheraton KoP (in case you read this, silent sobbing please)

When you check into the Westin and they say welcome home and you know that's weird but it's kind of soothing

Planning on opening a Bonvoy boundless chase cc for the 75,000 points and have heard the first year is free. Is that right? If it is, do I still get the 75k? Are the 75k Chase points or Bonvoy points?

SPG app updated for me but not combination

A first for me, after 1.6 million miles. Thankful for a delay. The delay on the connector saved me a night at ord Hilton after the ludicrous delay on the first leg.t. Truly grateful united

Having to call Marriott to apply a suite night award to an SPG hotel on a reservation you made before the merger and combining accounts proves to you how much is still SO WRONG with this merger.

Traveling for a wedding this summer and the only SPG location is only available for 1 of 2 nights. Only other good hotel is a Hilton but have no status. How bad is Hilton with not status?

Could any marriott employee share a friend and family form? I'll return the favor :)

Best credit card for travel?!? And, why? Never really used airport lounges.

I have the Marriott Bonvoy, SW rewards and CSP.

Found a bed bug in a Radisson Red in Campinas Brazil, how many points?

Hi fellow fish need some advice.

I'm planning a wedding and wondering if I should apply for new credit cards to maximize on points. If so, wondering what your recommendations are and or if there are new cards out there I haven't heard of yet. For context I probably have another 20k+ in expenses to pay still and my current cards are:

CSP
Marriott Bonvoy Boundless
Citi double cash
Random card (used to be uber)

Any choice Marriott properties in NYC? Hard to distinguish what's a good pick. Trying to stay below 300 USD a night.

Merged my account this morning. Quite a sentimental moment to delete my SPG app. Bye bye you purple little guy

Almost 4 weeks in and my status is still wrong. It was correct for the first ~1 day and then bumped down a level. Shouldn’t be hard as all my nights last year were SPG. This is ridiculous.

Singapore hotel thoughts - JW seems nice and in a good location (Marina), St Regis seems slightly more luxurious perhaps but maybe not as good of a location and Westin has great views but is a Westin

Staying at the Ritz and STR in the Maldives so expecting good service and reading mixed things about tipping. I usually don’t tip much at hotels (never really thought about it) but what do people do? Is there an expectation and would the amount be based on like room rate or just a flat daily per day?

Has anyone used the annual elite gift to buy a mattress through Marriott? If I buy it on my Boundless card will I get 6x points?

Hello everyone, I wanted to ask about pay ranges for Cloud Infrastructure engineers or Devops in Toronto/Vancouver for a mid-senior position, especially if anyone has an idea about Telus pay ranges.

Also, if they have a good culture or not.

Thank you!

Looking to switch jobs and maternity leave policy is an important factor for me. Would love to hear about some companies that have generous mat leaves vs. others that don’t. Can you all share what you know?

Should I take this role?
Pros: 50k bump, company is full remote, no time tracking software, unlimited PTO, 10k in quarterly bonuses, vertical move in responsibility and title, will set me up for future roles in different companies with the title I am looking for (so strategic move)

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent to my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t grow my network as much, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)

Can I use the floating holiday after 9/30 or is it gone?

Thoughts on thoughts on thoughts on MBA?

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.

If you remove all client specific data and alter data around so it is not client specific, can you then send yourself the file so you know what you did?
