I fell asleep on the plane from DCA > CLT today and had a dream that American Airlines instituted a new policy where the entire flight is just a nonstop ad for their rewards credit card, and they stop announcing it only if 50% of passengers completed an application.

No but they did start a new inception policy for ads for dreaming customers

Ps: in that same note, I got talked into signing up for a platinum card by Delta agent- you pay a fee, but there are supposed to be all sorts of benefits, including free tickets, upgrades, and so on. I get my card and paperwork and it says you get this after spending $25,000 first year. So I went and booked a work trip to Barcelona using card last night, price over $2300. Card is declined, I call AmExp and the card only has a $1300/month limit. ☹️🤯😵‍💫. So had to use my current Delta AmExp card. No way to get to $25k when you can only book $1300/ month. What a ripoff. I was taken by Delta!!!

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA
