Does anyone have a preferred car service company? I am looking for a service that can consistently provide traveler alerts such as when car has arrived, passenger is on board, trip competed, etc. across US cities. I have found a company that will do this when I book travel in NYC, but when my Professionals arrive in their destination cities the affiliates do not offer this same feature. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Planning a family trip to Costa Rica during Spring Break in Apr 2022. Would love to get some suggestions. Costco offers various packages for 5-6k. Had liked their Cancun package except that it doesn’t let you explore the local much as the all inclusive resort kind of makes you lazy and greedy lol

Going to Key West in a few weeks - any recommendations? Have a reservation at Latitudes already and day trip to Dry Tortugas planned

Help! I recently purchased a wanna get away ticket through Southwest for a business trip that was about $850. I was asked to cancel the trip due to other work issues in my local area. As luck would have it, there's a strong possibility that I landed a great new job and they need me to start right away. The credit is under my personal rapid rewards account. Ideas to help me avoid writing a big check to my company??

Has anyone seen any decent MQD run ideas for Delta recently? I’m about 8k MQDs from diamond. Seems the Aeromexico method is on hold until they are fully back up and running. Thanks!

Where are you all traveling to for work?

Serendipitously meeting people on the road was one of the best parts traveling pre-Covid

Sharing this out in case there is anyone else in a similar situation who is secretly confused about what to do and is too afraid to ask:

I just today got back from 7 days in Italy* - 5 days in Siena, 2 days in Bologna, with day trips to Modena and Parma. This is how I am handling risk mitigation and quarantining and the logic behind it:

Anyone have any car rental hacks to get something other than a compact to show as a compact on the receipt? Traveling on federally reimbursable funds, so need to show a compact car. But hoping to get something nicer but not get flagged by the Bean Counters. Thanks!

For the one year of work experience requirement to get CPA license in CO, when did you qualify? Do they just do 1 year from DOH or do you need to have charged 1,800 hours of client work?

I just need some Brugal rum, Aventura or Romeo Santos songs on repeat all night…

I do things (late nights/weekends) that I don't think my managers/partner knows about since everything is running well - directly correlated with elected hours spent. Is it weird to bring this up?

Can anyone help me wrap my head around this post Series C start-up equity offer? It’s an IP director position, the the base is $170 with 10% bonus (both lower than I was expecting). There’s also an equity component: 0.15% of current fully diluted equity. This equates to about 30000 shares at a strike price of $2. They also indicate the preferred stock price is $6 and preferred stock equity is $188k (whatever that means). They are in the middle of a new financing and valuation round.

Question, if you pay off your house isn’t a 100k salary more than enough to sustain a good lifestyle? My goal has always been to payoff my mortgage then find a really easy analyst role to sustain my expenses. Assuming I’m a director/VP by the time my mortgage is paid off I’d probably be able to do an analyst 40hr week in like 10hrs. Esp at some of these low expectation companies. What do y’all think about this plan?

Anyone else going crazy over the 2/3 score release? I took the exam on 1/13 and it feels like the wait is forever. Post test stress is sooo real

Does anyone here suffer from bipolar disorder? How do you manage it and working in law? I see a therapist, and a psychiatrist, and am on medication, but I still have days where I wake up and I’m so depressed I can’t move. I’m working on remedying this with my doctors, but how does one approach mental health issues with their employer? I never felt the need to until I realized how much being bipolar can affect my ability to work.

Hi Fishes,
Can someone tell me the shift timings at Tiger Analytics? I have heard that they have flexible shifts is 8-5 possible?

I have a boneheaded question I’m pretty sure I know the answer to. My partner can’t use my Hilton Honors account for an upcoming stay he is going to book, right? He doesn’t need my discount or anything - was just hoping that he could get my diamond benefits.

Final day at current company tomorrow and I have 100k+ AMEX points I need to use before they disappear forever. How should I redeem them to get the most bang for my buck?

Priority Pass (through my CSR) cancelled their relationship with the lounge in my home airport all of the sudden. That was a huge benefit of having the card for me. Anything I can do with Chase?

Amex Platinum or Chase Sapphire?

Thoughts on the new Chase Freedom Flex?

Does Platinum Corporate Amex worth the $550 fee in terms of points? Let's say I travel up to 50% of the year. And EY doesn't pay for the membership fee anymore, right?

Need to get precheck/global entry. Should i get a credit card that covers this and cancel in a year, or should i pay it myself?

Does anybody know of any fast track promotions or instant status with IHG hotel program for PwC or in general?

Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min. Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed). I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?

Has anyone had Marriott gift you the next level of status if you’re only a few nights short of the requirement at end of year?
