I'm 360 on Delta - best thing ever. Got picked up by a Porsche in Atlanta yesterday and driven to my next gate

Confused by this "picked up in a Porsche to be driven to the next gate." Assume by "next gate" that means you were connecting. Did they take you out on the runway to drive around the airport? 🤷🏼‍♂️

@McK1, you platinum at Marriott? You get the base level status at united if so

I've heard that before A1, I looked for it and couldn't find a way to link the accounts. Do you know where I need to go?

D1, just add your united account # to Marriott account

Does the status last forever? I did that awhile back and I don't travel (I'm a federale) and I'm still silver?

*marriott status giving said UA status

I'll name my next kid pentalux if you give me that gold medallion. Didn't travel enough last year to maintain status and now I am a commoner.

Hi all, looking to buy a fourplex in Austin TX. Off market they will accept $625k “as is”. My only financing option is fha it seems since I don’t have 15% down. Current rents are $4300. It’s in south Austin part of 78704 but a really bad street. My thoughts are it’ll gentrify and I’ll condo regime it. Any major concerns, am I buying at the peak? Are there other financing options I should entertain? First house so a bit nervous. Thank you!

After reaching out to the general counsel on LinkedIn, I applied for an in-house job a month ago. I didn’t hear anything. A few days ago the general counsel reached out on LinkedIn and said she did not see my application in the mix but was hoping to and asked if I wanted to meet. I said I did apply, indicated I was interested in meeting, and asked if I could send my materials. She said yes and she would send me some times. I sent my materials and haven’t heard a thing. Any idea what is going on?
