Don’t forget to send a complaint Email to your airlines customer service...demand some free points for the inconvenience

Points?! Something like this deserves a flat out voucher, if not cash money

No, this is called welcome to coast to coast travel. I did it for awhile and no its not worth it whatever company it is. Get use to delays and problems and red eyes

Almost 4 hour delay to lga as well from dca. Think it might be the wind

For the SFO to JFK it was mechanical. Completely preventable thus a good opportunity to complain. Already wrote my email while on the flight. Expecting at least 25k points out of it

Rookie, ask for cash. No lie

Absolutely. Businesses can be ethical by treating people the way they’d want to be treated. 3 ways Airbnb can do this: Aggressively fight fraudulent listers, let Airbnb members control their data (allow data requests/permissioning/deletion from any state or country), and oh - make it easy for people to get their money back if their travel was affected by covid-19. How not to be ethical: marketing ethics vs living them.

I loathe Monday morning meetings. We have a monthly team meeting at 8:00am PT and it makes me so mad! 😂 It’s always on a Monday, and I have the hardest time getting motivated for them. Normally I wake up at 6:30am, check the news, stocks, shower, eat breakfast, get dressed and start answering emails at 8am.. no speaking meetings until 10am. However, on the team meeting Monday’s, I’m scrambling to do my morning routine and get setup to present/share my screen.. I hate them. We all hate them lol!
