PwC1. Truly experiencing serfdom first hand

Totally gives perspectives and humbling for sure. I haven't flown coach in 8 months and it's painful

I had this experience as a child in South Asia where I thought I wasn't too affluent. Then once I went to pick up a relative from the train station. Oh my god. I realized then why my parents were so intent on sending me to America.

Missed my connection

Correct, DD1, I usually fly delta so I usually don't need to go on the peasant airline

Hello fish - I moved to NYC from Charlotte NC recently. I have several weddings to attend in the month of April and am traveling back for 3 weeks. Has anyone traveled via airline with a pet before?

I don’t know where to start … having a pet sitter for 3 weeks isn’t an option and driving to and from isn’t either due to my work schedule.

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.

She’s on my leg and she’s snoring, but I don’t want to move since she looks so comfy. I’m her slave. Planning her birthday— go to the dog beach + eat at a restaurant with a doggie menu + get a pup cake at a dog cafe + spend a night at a hotel (having trouble finding hotels that’s allow dogs >50lbs 😒). What else can I do for her? She has too many toys & doesn’t play with them often. No need for more treats since she eats more treats than kibbles. But what gift can I get her?

Perhaps I’ve gotten too introspective during the pandemic. Don’t really want to go back for a JD and aside from keeping a roof over my head I’m not very motivated by money. Anyone else have similar ideas?
