Why get a Delta card with no plans to fly on them...

(Contd).. Any other purchase on delta website that shows up as delta purchase and I can get the credit? Gift cards purchases are excluded from this offer I think.

Having trouble landing a decent job, I am 4 years post bachelors, environmental science. I can not seem to land a job above minimum wage. My last position (horticultural assistant) found myself taking on a good amount of projects that were being left unfulfilled, due to coworker politics (a few co worker’s wanted to see the supervisor fall short of expectations) in addition I had difficulty with my manager( sexual harassment) I rejected their advances, and I was laid off in December
