Meetings kept you from med treatment? You had a shard of glass in your freaking foot!!

Definitely ask for some points. There are people on this app who ask for and receive points if their pillows are not the right firmness....

Lol getting medical treatment = POINTS POINTS POINTS

For medical issues or being hurt on the property, they will not proactively offer anything nor should they. We are in a litigious country and offering something in advance would admit guilt. Any lawsuit would be a slam dunk after that point. If you had medical bills you should go through the hotels insurance to get reimbursed.

I mean...they should probably pay for your medical expenses. This is certainly something that they would be legally obligated to cover

Getting medical treatment. I did inform the Mgr and, while not asking for points or any compensation, was surprised nothing was proactively offered. I did get my goal - they are getting the room a deep cleaning (says the head of security), but wondering what others might have done. I'm not going to ask for anything more, but should I have? I'm not usually the guy that asks for bonus points.

Didn't need medical treatment. When I got home I took a jewelers loupe and sharp tweezers, and with a little contortion to reach my heel removed the shard.

dude. shard of glass in your foot? that should be at least 100k points. i know a girl who ate shit on an icy parking lot/sidewalk and negotiated like $1k cash and 250k points... at a residence inn.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
