@K1 Not all of them suck at gate scheduling like this. While waiting to deplane (15 minutes) my connecting flight has changed gates three times. Sounds like you have an entire tree up your ass, hopefully you can get that removed!

ORD is actually pretty good aside from long taxi and Thu afternoon penalty box upon landing.

ORD is never as bad in poor weather if you don't have a connection there. In that case, a delay to your inbound is usually less impactful if you won't be missing a connection.

Think ORD has lots of gate changes? Try going to Europe. Total shitshow.

It was an honest question, too. Had to fly AA instead of Delta this week due to cost. I've had nothing but bad experiences and cancellations due to weather here, and wondered if I was just unlucky.

Nooooo! Just got staffed in Chicago. How bad is it?

Not nearly as bad as it sounds.I live in Chicago, going on year 4 traveling out of ORD and I've only seen OPs situation once.

Like I said, I might be unlucky some I only do it a few times a year. A lot of missed connections due to weather and constant gate changes.

*since

The weather point is fair. Winter can get pretty bad for flights landing in time for a connection.

Yeah, I always have tight connections there when I fly AA. They never let me go to projects in Chicago itself.

LGA is so much worse. The only annoying thing about ORD is how long it takes for AA flights to tax after the flight lands. Try getting delayed in some of these terminals at LGA. Some don't even have a bar!

Hey friends. My wife and I are looking to start investing in the market outside of our 401ks, hsa etc. We opened a Charles Schwab brokerage account and planning to transfer 2-3k/mo. We’re in our late 20s/early 30 and likely won’t need to touch the money for 10+ years. What should be our investment strategy? How should we allocate to what funds? Thinking of splitting evenly across large, mid, small caps, and growth, value funds using DCA.

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time
