Should I book a flight using chase sapphire points or American Airlines points to Europe? Flight would cost $950 or 45k points. I’d prefer to get EQMs is why I ask, but I’m new here

I think something above 2.0 cents per mile is pretty good. That’s the threshold where I start use miles. There will probably be a fun and cheap mile run you can do in December if you really end up needing the extra EQM.

like

I would go for an AA award ticket if it's available. Use miles as much you can. CSR points you can use else where

Yea I was just thinking as far as EQM is concerned, but good point maybe award is better at this point

Transactional associate. Lateraled 6 months ago and one of the biggest pain points has been my new firm’s inclination to “hop on a call”, which of course requires every single stakeholder to join.

It’s destroying my ability to get anything done during the day. It’s a complete performance and it drives me nuts.

Round or exact numbers on banners/LPs? I was curious about this since in negotiations for example or pricing it's better to have the exact number. But if you have a case study, for example, is it better to say "Client X increased their revenue to 1,000,000 ARR" instead of "Client X increased their revenue to 987,500 ARR" ? Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?

I've done so well in this new role within the company that they are hiring another person to assist with what I do.

Is it wrong for me to expect either a promotion or to be paid to train this person?
