How many spg points can I get for a repeated fire alarm going off at 1 in the morning? Should I complain to hotel staff directly or SPG customer service?

Call spg platinum line and tell them that due to the fire alarm, you were unable to get a good nights rest and missed your first few meetings the next day. This caused you to lose potential business and slap a dollar amount on that biz impact. They will then typically offer 5k or so spg points for your troubles.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people.

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
