What would you do: I upgraded my room internationally in Paris and (1) the shower was clogged - which I found out while in the shower on the first night - and (2) the water temperature would change from hot to cold every few minutes every time I showered. I’m not happy, but I’m international, so what would you do? Ctd.

Is the hot/cold issue fixed? If not, I’d recommend asking for a room switch and seeing if that will help

The shower was fixed that night, while I was in the room, with no apology or consideration. I spoke w the front desk, it’s a name brand hotel, and they offered me a bottle of wine.

Any name brand or local hotel?

Name brand, one of the biggies.

…and now we have food poisoning most likely from breakfast at the hotel but can’t confirm obviously. Lovely.

NYC Freelancers! My Medicaid is ending soon and I need to start making health insurance decisions (lame). My current agency is offering me FT and I’m pretty terrified as I feel like I’m going to sell away my freedom. Their health insurance is pretty good and allows me to put my partner on it. I’m trying to also rationalize paying for my own in NYC but it’s so expensive ($500+/mo). I go to the doctor fairly often. Single NYC freelancers (no kids), what do you pay monthly or yearly? Worth it?

I'm so stressed and nearing my limit 😪. My design partner for several years now, loves to pretend she's the CD and markup my work. Historically I've let it slide because she has good suggestions. But lately she outright changes my copy and tells me later. I'm easygoing and they're good suggestions so I try to ignore but its getting worse and borderline disrespectful. We work exclusively together so if I rock the boat its going to get even more uncomfortable. What would you do?
