SPG Platinum and didn't realize I didn't have a hotel booked. Had to book a Marriott last min. and I feel like I've walked into the den of the enemy. Suppose we'll be one big happy family soon enough.

Anyone have first hand experience with travel medical insurance? Looking to purchase for a short trip but finding so many mixed reviews from people that have had to actually try and use it. Appreciate any recommendations!

Got Marriott Gold via SPG Gold match. If I stay 25 more nights in Marriott properties will I earn platinum?

She says she is coming on our trip. On the following Thurs 4/28 I need to spend time with my 92 year old diabetic father. Do I go on this trip? I don’t think my friend has quarantined long enough to be sitting with 6 people driving in a van to our location unmasked as well as in the hotel room. Would you go on this trip?

Recently accepted a temp role as an HR admin for a former employer. Previously interned there & left because my supervisor did not have any growth opportunities planned out for me; this was in spite of my stellar performance, as reflected in my 90 day review. She has since left the company, but there’s crazy turnover in the company & in the HR department in particular. Just that an HR coordinator resigned. Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?

Does anyone need a hr coordinator, or entry level talent acquisitions coordinator that is 100 remote?

I have about a year of recruiting in the staffing industry and 6 months as an hr assistant for a corporate/manufacturing company. MA in Hr and will be testing for phr in July. Thank you

What book have you read that was helpful for your career and/or that you would recommend? Could be a technical book, management, etc. For me, it’s a book I read a few years ago: The Phoenix Project. I never thought I would read and like a novel about DevOps but I recommend it to all my managers.
