Left client at 1:30pm, 45 minutes early into ORD, no penalty box, gate ready, and it’s low # B-gate. If I could rap, this would be an Ice Cube song.

Yeah, but the toilet is probably broken, there’s no air conditioning, and your seat won’t recline... I’m sitting in EWR, got here early and managed to score an upgrade on a much earlier flight. Got boarded and sat for a 90 minutes. Then they off-loaded us and rescheduled for 2 hours later. Same time as my original flight, now getting home at midnight...

Oof

Wow. That is rare

How have I never heard the term penalty box for the parking lot? That's awesome. I sat in it at ORD for 40min tonight myself.

Not all airports give them interesting names but the “penalty box” is actually marked as such on the ORD diagram, along with “scenic hold pad” (although ORD also has the less interestingly-named A, B, and C pads)

Hello Guys,

I joined
Cognizant recently, the project interview calls which I am getting is not from my base location.
I have the location constraint, should I wait for the right opportunity or raise this concern to ADP team so they can look in to it?

As per ADP policy, one should not have any constraints and take the project as FCFS basis.

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
