Why does the purchase agreement call for a FIRPTA when no real estate is being purchased?

Looking for referrals for a Technical Sales Executive position that is Remote (USA), possibly in the industrial sector. Last year I made $109k at AT&T so I'm hoping to at least stay in the same ball park but want a change. I have lots of experience selling IT/telecom, but I also have a Mechanical Engineering background so I'm a good fit for a wide range of technical sales. I have been thinking a role in the industrial sector with a longer sales cycle may be a good fit, can travel up to 25%

Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min. Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed). I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?

Been living in a luxury building for about a year and start noticing that I have a mild cough when I’m in the building. Thought it’s just something residual after my cold but then I went for a week out of town and it disappeared completely only to start again when I got back and stepped into my building. Anyone experienced anything like that? I’m not going crazy, am I?

Thinking of getting a peloton. Anyone actually experience weight loss and overall health improvement from having one?

Hi!!
Recently I applied for the SOC role in IBM. Cleared all the rounds. The HR was offering me 5.7 lpa. I asked for more. HR said she would check and get back. Hasn't replied to my calls since the last 4 days. Should I expect a call?
Current CTC: 4.5 lpa
YOE: 2.5

PSA: Jet and Powermatic are having supply chain issues. Ordered a jet dust collector in March with an April delivery date. Woodcraft has pushed it back every month and their current best estimate is July 7th (though they are still advertising a June ship date). Just keep that in mind if you have any sense of immediacy around your purchasing needs.

Got staffed on an investigations matter and was asked to draft the letter. I added everything the senior associate said to and I still got a rewrite. I’m a mid level at a new firm, so I feel particularly awful about this. Feels like I’ll never be a good lawyer.

Hello folks,

My current ctc is 23lpa and I have offer of around 36lpa in India
However i am getting an onsite opportunity In Denmark, what should be my expected ctc there? Considering the country is much expensive. If anyone has done research regarding cost of living in Denmark earlier, please share your thoughts on this, it would be very helpful. They are willing to offer 60k euros, but I feel 36 lpa in india is better deal. Companies are equivalent.

Best Hyatt in Hawaii (ideally Kona or Maui)?

What’s the best points system for people traveling in Canada? So far I only use Bonvoy and Aeroplan.

My DashPass via my CSP is expiring at end of the month. Does anyone know if I can get another year of it by adding another eligible Chase card on the same account??

Anyone else has two Amex plat and why?

Staying at a Hilton currently and have had tons of minor issues in the 3 days We’ve been here. Room wasn’t ready for 45min after check in time, AC did not work, maids did not clean room...continued

New year checklist for amex plat, CSR, Delta, and AA? :)

It says on Bonvoy breakfast voucher that gratitude is included. Somehow they always expect additional cash tips?

Any recommendations for best balance transfer card? Like zero APR for 15-18 months and no fee? Also nice to have points or cash bonus

Extension of Marriott status!! Rejoice!

Hi fellow fish need some advice.

I'm planning a wedding and wondering if I should apply for new credit cards to maximize on points. If so, wondering what your recommendations are and or if there are new cards out there I haven't heard of yet. For context I probably have another 20k+ in expenses to pay still and my current cards are:

CSP
Marriott Bonvoy Boundless
Citi double cash
Random card (used to be uber)

Has anyone tried to sell miles or points through one a site. I have a family member looking to do it and I had never looked into. Any experiences? Pros cons

For CSP/CSR, does the person getting referred get anything other than the public offer?

I am new to United Silver and I purchase economy tickets. Is the best strategy to check in exactly 24 hours ahead and switch my seat to an open economy plus seat?

Likely going to miss Delta Diamond this year by about 10k miles. Anyway to pay to make up the difference?

If anyone is looking for a new great card - the new Capital One Venture X had an awesome 100k point offer ending tomorrow afternoon! PM if you have any questions or for a referral.

Where are the good point promotions? Spg (soon), Hyatt recently just ended and those were lame. Anyone know good ones going on or starting relatively soon? Interested in rental and air promotions, too.

New to UR travel portal. I keep seeing that I will get 1.5x back here -- does that mean if I have 20,000 points originally, it becomes 30,000 points in the portal? (cont.)

Just got an offer to upgrade my Amex Gold to Platinum with a 100k point bonus (spend $6k in 6 months). Is this worth it to upgrade to platinum? Would you do it

Can I use AA advantage points to purchase stuff other than Tickets? I am at a United Hub so I most likely won't be flying AA again..
