I just got an email this morning saying they’re expiring 10/28…

Okay you f*ckers were right. It was AwardWallet that sent the email and it was wrong.

Thank you for judging and go to hell.

This doesn’t make any sense. Marriott paused point expiration until March 2022.

Even outside of the COVID pause, points don’t expire little by little. If your account is inactive for 24 months, then ALL points are expired at once.

Why don’t you ask to wfh and go travel without losing our

All you have to do is either earn points or use points in a 24 month period, which is why I have my Hulu payment connected to my Marriott card, just in case lol

c) Comp trajectory

Almost 4 weeks in and my status is still wrong. It was correct for the first ~1 day and then bumped down a level. Shouldn’t be hard as all my nights last year were SPG. This is ridiculous.

We were going to go on a hike and had a hotel booked for a night. Texted him 5 min before arrival and when i was there to pick him up. He hopped in the shower. I got annoyed that he did that because i communicated beforehand to be ready. He didnt like that and said that he thinks that i think my time is more important than his... he canceled the trip and we are not speaking because of this incident... Am i crazy or something?
