Crap when does it expire again?

Looked around a bit. Nothing great in the Northeast unfortunately. It’s good for Orlando if you wanna do a Disney or universal trip. I’m using mine for a weekend in Dallas

Is it possible to book cat7 then pay the difference with our own points?

@C1 scroll up man...you can upgrade it with monies by calling Marriott

You can’t i tried. You will find no category 5 in any major city. I just used mine at an airport for a night when i was flying into another city for the weekend

Used it at JW Marriott in Hanoi and was upgraded to some ridiculous suite. Moral of the story: leave the US.

If anyone wants to donate, i’ll post a picture of my kid enjoying the free night 😬

Career advice?

I'm a relatively junior data engineer (2yoe), the only other engineer (senior) that trained me left about a 6 months ago and I negotiated a nice raise for the extra responsibilities.

My performance reviews have been stellar, but my manager is starting to look to hire a senior to help me deliver projects as we do lack capacity right now.

I feel like I might be missing an opportunity to ask for a promotion and hire a junior instead.

Any opinions/tips?

I started QA at the company I am currently at 3 years ago. Long story short, within 4 months at the company, I was able to make a career change and step into a PM position. Without having the formal education or PM experience, only my 5 years in QA experience. When I started I made $65k and have jumped to $78k. I have seen other companies post $100k+. Annual review is tomorrow. Should I fight for more or look for more somewhere else if I lose that fight?
