Ewr lounge is awful. JFKs admirals club is much better (JFK also has flagship, but only for select travel, not membership)

Everything about the AA terminal in EWR is awful, not limited to just the lounge

JFK is amazing

Got an offer for Gold status on AA if I sign up for their card @$699. Platinum status is $1299. I’m currently UA Global Services. Is this a good enough deal to switch?

IMO not really. AAs top tier is Concierge Key by invite only. Then Exec Plat, then Platinum Pro, then Platinum .... the chances of upgrades as a Platinum are slim. So if upgrades are what you’re looking for I would stay as a GS.

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

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?

Planning a trip to Rome and Naples with day trips to Tivoli and Pompeii. Is 1 week enough? I feel like reading through 3/4 day Rome and 2 day Naples itineraries, the trip seems rushed. I have unlimited PTO but my SO is limited in time (but luckily he can work extra hrs and then use less PTO). I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts? For reference, I did Venice-Florence-Rome in a week and it seemed okay but it also wasn’t as planned out
