The next time that you are considering asking for points for smallest mistakes of HK, just think how you'd feel if your client reports your small mistakes to your partner and ask for discount

Bad analogy. We don’t get discounts when we ask for points. We will pay the full boat. The points are for a future stay. I would love to do that. Sure. You can have consulting points to apply to your next purchase of services! Then have blackout dates, categories of consultants. Points not applicable to due diligence work.

Also the comparison is weak sauce. We get the points on our personal account. Discounts hit the client P&L, not the client’s personal finances.

Then we can do points and dollars for consulting services and really rip them off. Points expiration dates, etc. I should propose this at our next all hands.

Need a quick point of view all - today on a group call, I asked a new c level male exec if it was fine for me to provide a client with a piece of information we had been discussing on the call (this required his approval). He replied “you’re an adult so tell them what you want”. I was immediately livid and felt it was a totally weird, condescending response. I’m a senior female employee at the company and this guy has already had issues at the company with his tone, thoughts? Am I overreacting?

I so badly wanted to go to Vegas next year for CSKOM, but I was not invited.

I understand that budget is an issue but as a younger adult this is very detrimental to my career because I will miss out on a huge networking opportunity.

We’d rather lose the house than overpay, so this concerns us.
