500 Mile Upgrades are the lamest fucking thing, I miss my Delta status

This question might anger some, but not meant to be provoking. Does anyone else feel that half the jobs in tech (scrum master, project manager, product manager, etc.) are more hindering than helpful? I feel like productivity would sky rocket if we didn’t have 10+ hours a week added of admin work/agile ceremonies/status meetings, and you just let developers and analysts do their job. Why are we spending hours learning how to estimate story points (for example) rather than improving production?

Just wondering , what hotel chains do the following companies use? MBB, ADL, Strategy&, Roland Berger , Delta Partners , Alvarez

2) A well constructed story/resume can offset any weak points in your experience

So I've heard from a bunch of people that working as a Product Designer at a FAANG company isn't as glamourous as people make it out to be.

Is there any truth to this? Or is it just bitter people who didn't get hired?

I've heard the work life balance is tough, and that people usually leave after less than 1.5 years because the churn is crazy.

Is it worth going for FAANG companies or nah?

Yesterday I purchased an overseas flight from United but it’s operated by Lufthansa. Today I looked and Lufthansa has one seat left for my itinerary. The flight is in December and I will likely want to bid on an upgrade. Should I cancel and rebook with Lufthansa to increase my odds of my upgrade being accepted? And am I even able to bid on an upgrade via United? I have about 10 hours to make this decision since I can cancel without penalty within 24 hours of purchasing. Thx!
