Need advice: I just started this week at my new company and prior to joining I brought tickets with my friends together for a one week vacation to the West Coast. It will be the week of 7/4. Now I just talked to my manager about taking the week off, but found out we are actually really busy that week. There were some compromise, but still not ideal. I have really 3 options: change my group flight, cancel, or work during the vacation. Any other options or advice will be helpful!

LPT: Expiring United voucher? Book a trip now while there is no cancellation fee. Book it so it’s like 6 months out. Then go ahead and cancel that trip in 5.5 months. You’ll be reissued a new voucher with an expiration date 2 years from the newly canceled date (this includes the extended 1 year due to COVID).

What can I do to save this dog?

Some half a year ago, my gf moved across the country and took the family dog with her. It's an eight year old purse dog that no one ever bothered disciplining or socializing. Not really house trained, and the last flight she was on, the flight attendant threatened to put her on the no fly list. The dog won't sit still and scratches and lightly bites if held down, and tries to start fights with other dogs.

Gf wants to put it down, not even considering...

My company covers in depth results each week, including meetings set/attended, wins, revenue, retention etc. I feel as if evaluating in such depth is detrimental to the psyche, as you never get to “ride the high.” In addition, some weeks are simply slower than others, and it’s not always representative of what the results at the end of the period or quarter will be. Is this not a big deal, and I’m I placing too much importance on it? Or is it beneficial to review results less frequently?
