Delta newbie here. 9k away from reaching platinum for the year right now. If I spend 20k miles on tickets for Thanksgiving do I then need to get 29k miles to reach platinum? Thanks fish fam.

Uhhh no, using points doesn’t set your tracker back

No, it won't set you back. Spending SkyPesos on a trip also won't count toward your MQMs.

Thank you!

Hi fishes,
Need your thoughts.
I am done with my client interview and it went well but they are asking me to come to gugaon location.
I am from Bangalore location.
I directly said to client that I can't since I have my family here.
When I inform this to my manager he is saying how come u say like this to client.according to kpmg policy u need to travel to anywhere to work.
This is not good right. What should be my reply to the client in such a case and how to handle manager on this?

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend. I am currently unallocated in TCS and seeking projects in the same US location as my Wife. Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.
