Anyone else get annoyed by the 2-3 days it takes Marriott to post points to your account? Like Delta is almost instant and when you transfer amex points its instant. Why does Marriott take so long...?

Queridos creativos hispanos, por favor todos los días sin y con cuarentena veo que trabajamos duro y hacemos las cosas bien hechas (a veces hacemos más de lo que nos piden) y a la nuestros compañeros les gusta ynos siguen usando. Está bien que nuestro trabajo sea reconocido pero por favor no sean tímidos en decir que necesitamos un salario decente tan cuál como todos los demás que más bien hacen menos y todavía les pagan. Hay que insistir no solo para el individuo pero para ayudarnos a todos!

Honestly a really stupid and noob question, but do you get to keep the noise cancelling headphones they give you in Delta One?

Confession: Watching middle management slobs with midlife crises sexually harass each other on fishbowl is a horrifying trainwreck but I can't look away

People really get fired up in this bowl...

I'm moving to a different state at the end of the month for work. Me and my young daughter. I was super excited but now I'm starting to doubt everything and get scared.
I want to do it on my own but all my fears are making me think to invite my mom to stay with us to help. She might make me go crazy though.
I get like this where I have so much to process and stop speaking to people bc I feel like a burden but it's too much. I guess I need a therapist 😆

Thinking about moving from NYC to SF in couple months. Is it stupid of me to think that I can live without a car for at least first couple of months there? 👀 Is it really impossible to live without a car in SF? I’ve only lived in cities and never owned a car before- but heard that I am going to need one. Regardless, can you please recommend the most walkable neighborhoods? My office is in fidi. Thank you!

New to the area. Moving to south city. Is public transportation safe to use to get into the city? I’ve just heard of horror stories about BART and the muni.

Hey there! Moving to the bay and wondering if anyone had thoughts on neighborhoods in Oakland that would be good for a single woman in her 30s who walks her dog a couple times a day. Looking to stay at ~$2500 in rent.

My new job will only need me in the office twice a week in SF and I figure the east bay is best for my budget and ease of commute, but let me know if there are other areas that could work for me. Thank you so much!

Been away from SF for 8 months. How is SF now?

Bay Area, CA- Any good brunch (birthday date) place. Vegan options. Not looking for fancy but good vibe and food.
