@D1 I think the crew gets a commission and they can choose whether or not to hawk it.

So salty P2... am I knocking on the Flight Attendants? No... I’m fully aware that it’s mandated by corporate office, hence my initial post as American Airlines the subject (Read: Corporate Office HQ), and not the FAs.

That said, once again, I find it tacky that American Airlines hawks their credit card so forcefully.

Q for HR folks! For companies who have offices in US and Canada, how easy would it be for American HR team to set up a role & compensation via the Canadian office for a Canadian remote worker? Would be a lot of work? But i know companies like Meta and Spotify do do this.

I'm Canadian and applied to a US remote role. Canadians don't need a visa for this. One of the ways would be to use Canadian entity's hr/payroll services. They showed keen interested but waned since finding out I'm Canadian.
