I am sick of seeing these SPG Marriott posts!! Can we talk about something else for a change?

Anyone trying to go in-house? Unlimited PTO (real kind where encouraged to take 4 weeks min, many take 6), paid medical, 1 of Crain’s top places to work. Hiring for legit everything. Get at me.

Had a 2 night reservation at a Fairfield Inn and was bumped. Am a Marriott platinum member and got the points and $100, but only one night at another hotel. Is this policy or should it be 2 nights?

Have some big trips planned for next year so I would like to upgrade my Delta gold AMEX to Platinum (need that MQD waiver 💸). I heard that if I upgrade I won’t get the 50k sign-up bonus miles, so should I just close my gold card (not my oldest card) and open a new Platinum one?

ON TIME FLIGHT FROM LGA.. What life am I living today 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼❤️

Anyone get very depressed and anxious specifically around their birthday?? Comes around every year and it’s hard because people are asking me how I’m going to celebrate or what the plan is. It’s about a month from now and every year I feel more anxious and depressed around it, I’m only 23. Wish I could just time travel to later in the year or something.

The longer I do this job, the more I want to accept a tech job... no travel, same / better pay, no annoying clients...

I am so sick and fed up with some of the older clients at my job. I know it's my responsibility to take care of them, but they're just so sexist sometimes.

I wanted to reschedule my hiring manager screen this week because I tested positive for covid and feeling sick with symptoms. Recruiter seemed annoyed and said hiring manager is busy for the rest of the week so I kept the original time slot. Interview is in 2 hrs and I just don’t feel like doing it esp thinking if this is the work culture

I want to support our medical assistants- they do so much to help us! How do you make sure they feel our appreciation?

I NEED HELP WITH CREDIT SCORE issues: Two months ago my credit score went down by 30 to 40 points due to dad missing credit card payment by a day (i got added to as authorized user on his credit card for me to build credit but now I’m filled with regret). I was devastated by it. This past month I have been making more payments and paid off my aug statement in full thinking it will boost my credit score. But I don’t know why it went down another 10 points. More below:

Mauritius or Cook Islands for a 2 week honeymoon??

Been feeling very low for a very long time. Working with a Big Four for 7+ years (since graduation) and was excited to join consulting as I get easily bored, wanted to grow at an exponential scale and wanted to travel for work. Cut to now, though I am well sought after for my skills and consistently got 25%+ bonus, I feel I have achieved nothing cuz I didn't get the promotions that I worked for, people have been chosen over me for overseas travel and destroyed my social life. Venting only! :)

I’m in interviews with a few companies. It was initially to see what was out there to negotiate my pay. Now, I’m seriously considering leaving my current company because of what one of the prospect companies represent: everything I want in a company/role. (Plus they reached out to me) AND they will pay me almost double what I’m currently making annually, put me in a position to advance (so many options!!!!!) and allow me to move/travel when I get ready to.

What should I do? Guidance please!!!

Hi fishes,

Today I got an email from TCS to complete an ibegin registration. Whenever I login, it is asking me to enter PAN details and mail ID. If I give, it is giving a warning that my account is already present in ibegin and telling me to login with another email ID. As if I remember, one of the consultancy, used my PAN to register in ibegin but I’m unable to login since it is registered by their mail ID and my PAN.
