What's tfw?

"The feeling when", my friend

Enjoy all 35mins of it 😊

Sorry, read DTW.

Sadly it's probably an old MD-80 unless you hit the one 787 flight per day

Got offered at check-in (no status, it was one of those luck-based upgrades) from DFW->ORD, on the 787, and didn't take it because it was like $100. Big mistake.

Oops ORD->DFW

Moved to Canada on a work permit but recently got my PR approved. It’s been a 4 month wait to get the actual PR card and I have a family trip coming up soon.

Not sure if this is the right forum but - my H1B extension has been approved (just got to know today) but my driving license will expire soon.

Couldn’t find a lot of info online, appreciate any help and advice!

And to throw into the mix, my lease is up so will be shifting to a new address soon.

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level. Knowing that I can bring a lot of value to the company (read- I know my worth), I negotiated with the hiring manager to have a level/comp review 6 months after employment. If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...
