Have diamond on Delta and need to take a personal coach flight on KLM. Any chance I can use Delta miles for an upgrade?

I am a CPA based out of Canada. I have 7 years of corporate finance and FP&A work under my belt. My fiancé will be starting dental school in NZ by Feb’23. Aiming to be a direct flight away from her, I have started looking into work opportunities in Australia. Can any expat here share their experience with getting a job as a foreigner? Are there any recruitment firms that specialize in working with expat talent? What was the biggest culture shock moving to Australia?

Gained weight. Didn’t care about living. Have tried to stop over and over. Last week I woke up with a bloody nose and for the first time cared. I don’t know what changed. I am 7 days sober and I am starting to feel like the me I remember! I am proud! I am thankful! I just needed to share!

We're going on our first family trip in a couple of weeks. Going to Turks and Caicos (Beaches) from Boston. I'm super anxious about it. Haven't been on a plane in 3 years(!!), and I'm really nervous about flying with our kids. They're 2 & 4, and the 2 year old doesn't wear a mask yet.

Any pro tips for those locations or just travel in general? Anyone flown recently (post no masks) and can calm my COVID fears for the littles?

Not sure if this is the place, but I have a preliminary interview with Kearney later this week for a Manager position. I’ve been working remotely with BDO for a couple years now. I’m in a major metro area. Does anyone know how much travel will be involved? I know true consulting firms are known for the road warrior reputation. Being away from my kids and husband more than 25% of the time... I don’t know if I could do it, even if it could potentially double my current salary.

My partner is starting to realise having a child will take a lot of the time we already don’t have.
I don’t mind not having kids. I don’t mind having one child ONLY. I’ve taken care of my cousins so I have an idea of what it’s like.

I kept on telling him if we have a child we will have to pay for someone to iron our clothes, for a nanny because who has time to go pick up kids at 4pm at school? Not us.

He’s finally starting to understand what I mean.

Hello!

Any advice on how to request a 20% raise? This is my first career out of college. I signed my offer letter knowing that I was being underpaid by 10%, as per the posted position salary. My 1-year appraisal is close and I would like to request 20% based on an increased workload; I would also like to make up for being underpaid my first year.

My dilemma: Many companies only pay up to a 4% raise. However, that will not cover much in this economy, and I would still be still underpaid.
