Looking to get 80K united points to book a flight. I’m a delta flyer and don’t have that many points. What’s the best way to get them?

Anyone deal with this before: I inherited a severely under developed team including a sr analyst who clearly was doing the bare minimum, if that. Over the last 6 months I have had to coach him and correct simple mistakes in his work and recently it got so bad that I told him he would receive a low rating in his evaluation. He lashed out, involved HR saying he doesn’t understand why, and now my review points out stuff that I would have let slide.

I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university. I am thinking about transferring to a much smaller private online program, specifically because they offer a concentration in organizational health, which directly builds on my doctoral research.

Generally curious how many companies offer phone reimbursement? My last gig did not but the current one does.

Work related expenses will be minimal, but Im moving/furnishing an apartment so personal spend will be decent. TIA!
