Agreed with the hotel "smell". I prefer the Fairmont, Ritz, Four Seasons and Shangri-La smell. W is cheezy.

My wife gave me the UV light to carry on my trips - to check how clean my rooms are. I wish I never tested. They are not clean. W, Westin and JW Marriott are actually the worst when it comes to big glowing blobs of... Stuff...

I mean, I'm just speaking to my shenanigans at Ws... Oh, Hoboken...

A1 is that on the sheets too or just duvet covers/furniture surfaces??

Westin's fragrance is white tea and they diffuse it throughout the hotel..so naturally I bought it so I could feel more at home when I'm actually at home 😒 #myrealhomeisthehotel

Have opportunity to work in my firm’s London satellite office for about a year and a half, and then come back to NY headquarters. In good standing with firm and have M&A and capital markets experience.

I am defending an eviction for a client who has given possession of the property (as of Nov. 30). Plaintiff’s complaint has one claim – possession. They did request relief for attorney’s fees. NJT/Final Hearing commenced 10/27, was only 30 min and was therefore continued to 12/20. Plaintiff had counsel at that time but they are no longer represented.  I want to file something notifying Court that Plaintiff claim is now moot, making sure that judgment is not entered that hurts (cont'd)..

So I worked from home yesterday and my husband had a sneak peak on my meetings with clients (which I’m very new to being a senior). He mention that I should read some sales pitch books of some sorts so I can get a process down and not be drain from having genuine conversations with every client. I think it’s a great idea. Anyone have thoughts or recommendation?

I am asked during this RE analyst interview to build a real estate model from scratch. My background is commercial banking and I am used to analyzing real estate deals from the lender side not the developer. The interviewer is generous I must say he’s giving me a few days to complete. However this model is for a ground up multifamily development. I have no prior experience building one. I can find models online but all very complexe to reproduce. How would you handle? Do you have model to share?
