Currently have Amex Plat and Gold with about 400k points - should I renew (I have no other point-generating cards rn) and if I don't renew, is there any value lost on my existing points? I don't have much travel nowadays and spend mostly on dining and groceries

Perhaps renew only one, and as for the points, even if you don’t travel much, it couldn’t hurt to transfer most of them to a loyalty program for when you do travel.

I don’t think it’s worth the fees to renew both of them for just food though.

Hi
I have received an offer from a company and I'm in the second stage of interviews with another company. I am very interested to see if I could make it through for the second company. So can I accept the offer from first company and then if second one also sends an offer then let the first company know I would like to reject? Also i am on H1B visa. Should I be concerned with that?

Is it difficult to move without a reference. I got all the skills needed in current job market. But looks like getting a job call itself is difficult.
Or is it because of My H1B visa status.

My boss fired me because i ask for clarification on my employment right.

I got hired not long ago. I realise some of the employee benefits i was told (missing in the contract) contradict with what’s stated on the law. So i email the boss about it and ask for clarification. Immediately after the email i was fired.

Just want to make sure people know this and don’t apply jobs in this shady company- it is called UniQ Biotech, in Delta, BC, Canada

What are your strategies for completing work efficiently? How do you figure out how long projects should take?

It’s something I actively work on, but I still have no concrete sense of how long I should spend on basic tasks (e.g., drafting a motion to dismiss). My firm is right to expect that I manage my time better as a mid-level associate. WFH has made my time management worse.
