Just checked into Marriott and did not get upgraded with platinum status. Thought this was because they were booked, but another person who is gold got upgraded. Any thoughts on how many points can be had. I'd prefer a room, but it's a bit annoying since I'm traveling with family and a baby and we unpacked our bags

Anyone traveling from SF -> NYC on a weekly basis (or the other way around)? What’s your travel schedule?

Gonna be traveling to Houston from NYC weekly. Which airline should I pick? I have some United miles already, and already have United silver status (thanks Marriott)

I’m leaving my job. I have $2500 in unused United flights. When I attempt to use them United says I have to contact the corporate travel company. 2 Qs: 1) Will I be able to use the credit by calling United or 2) should I book my holiday flights with the credits before my last day and see what happens?

Have any of your organizations solved for how to be flexible on travel for those trying to conceive (M or F)? It’s not like that’s a conversation you want to strike up with your project director.

I am a field marketer. I travel and cover 12 states. HQ is across the US on the east coast. My manager put a surprise calendar invite twice now to go to home office without consulting dates to see if we were available. I stood up and asked to be included on available dates and said I will attend virtually but asking me to be away for 4 additional full days away from my family without asking me is not OK. I already travel a lot and this boundary is super important to me. Am I right or wrong?

Hi fishes,

I have an offer from optum(United health group) and _VOIS(vodafone intelligence services) for Data Science position. Can someone please tell which is better?

Keep getting vacation offers from Marriott brands. Latest one is 5 days/4 nights in Cancun for $269. Of course the catch is you have to sit through a 2 hour sales pitch.

Anyone tried this? Worth it?

Checked into a Marriott, got a shitty smelling stale smokey smelling room. They moved me quickly, but still. Worth how many points?

Best places to travel in the winter? It would just be my SO and I (both 24). Thinking December specifically

Been at my current company 6 months. Is it too soon to ask for a raise? I’ve already sold through and produced multiple tv spots and just had a campaign go viral. Don’t want to appear opportunistic.

Team matching truly is the most difficult part of the process nowadays 😫

Hey all - could use some personal advice related to family. My sister and her husband (no kids) both work in low earning jobs (both in public services). He recently lost his job which I know is putting a huge stain on them financially. She is not one to accept help but It hurts to make so much more money and not be able to help. Any creative ways you’ve helped Fam out financially without just giving them cash? (Note - I would do that, she wouldn’t accept)

Do you feel men start hitting on you when they realize you’re single/unmarried? How do you keep the friendship without making things awkward?

A guy that my parents were trying to set me up with asked me if I’ve had any physical relationships. Coming from a conservative South Indian family is really something. Between those who want to use me and the hypocrites I’m feeling lost. Is deciding never to get married a bad stance to take?

Anyone in Northern VA with recommendations of doctors who do eye and lip fillers?

I’ve been wanting to move to a cheaper city but my husband says he can’t go as he couldn’t find a job. I’ve worked out a deal weak with partner in my firm to transfer me and hire my husband as a double deal. My husband still doesn’t want to move, as his expert area is localised in our city and he is being groomed for MD (3 years out). I totally understand but don’t know if I should push him to change our lifestyle but it may ruin his career

Any home owner ladies in here? I need advice.

Should I buy my own property before I marry my fiancé $600,000+ or help him fix his parents house (120,000+). It’s in a great neighborhood, it’s just falling apart.

My concern is: should I waste the “first home buyer” benefits? I could make the property I purchase our investment property.

Asked for a leadership role, was told "maybe in a couple years" and staffed as an analyst, basically. Now the part time PM on the project is pinging me saying he doesn't have enough hours on our project and trying to dump things on me last minute. I should be glad for the opportunity to prove myself but I'm just annoyed. I now have almost no time to create and submit a project plan to the client. Anyone have tips? I've done trainings but this will be my first actual and I'd prefer not to fail

If you're a woman and child-free, do you have regrets?

Cards on the table: I do! I'm 38, with a family history of natural pregnancies up to 50. I.e.: no bio reason why I couldn't still opt to get pregnant.

But, also: my family tree is, basically, cancer, heart attack under 30, psychiatric basket case and congentital heart defect galore.

I'm a minor statistical miracle here. And, knowing my math, I won't have kids.

Still, it hurts. Happy for friends having babies. But I wish I could, too!

Need advice. Please be kind.

I'm in my 50s, been married for 30 years.

It's never been a great marriage but it worked because I was on the road for 20 years. I've always been the breadwinner and my husband has found many, many reasons to not look for a job.

The pressure of being solely responsible for keeping a roof over our heads and food on our table all by myself has been overwhelming at times... con't
