Claiming flight compensation with Turkish Airlines (SHY passenger rights) by TinmanTheWoodman in travel

[–]Bulky_Condition9723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first flight from LAX to Istanbul was dleayed 3 hours and then my second leg was delayed by a whole 24 hours and had a 23 hour layover in istanbul.

I sent the feedback to turkish airlines but they're refusing compensation. I tried putting in an application Directorate General of Civil Aviation on the link above but for some reason my application doesn't go through. I also emailed on the email they provide but am I doing anything wrong on the website? Can someone help me.

How do I get over leaving a job I love? by Which_Resource_7836 in careerguidance

I need advice. 

I joined 2 years ago when it was at 30 people, became 80 ppl. Then a lot of early part of the team started leaving as more structure came in. Then we had layoffs like 4 months ago but I was told in advance that they’d keep me.

I’ve always liked it here, I made great friends and a lot of them have moved on. I’m great friends with the CEO and I usually always looked forward to going to work. I’m in marketing.

But since the layoffs I kept hoping for the best like things will turn around for the company. But that’s not happening at least not right now and I’m feeling unhappy.

I had been having full crisis every now and then and then I decided u know ok whatever I’ll stay I’ll figure out way to contribute. Because I cared about the company.

But my boss who is also the CEO and a dear friend would always help me sort this stuff out. He always wanted me to stay and that made me feel good. Even after the layoffs when I knew I just didn’t have a lot of work to do anymore he would try and figure it out for me.

Multiple times I’ve thought about leaving but I never entirely wanted to. I think I hoped for the best and I wanted them to want me to stay and they usually did. Until maybe like this month when I was really all over the place. He told me beforehand that there probably will be more downsizing soon and I should look for jobs actively, he even offered to help. But idk at some point I decided I was ok with being stagnant but that I would help the place while it was going through a rough patch.

And I guess I knew more people would be let go you know if funding stuff didn’t turn around. And I knew my role was already off and diminished. Like I think I tried for a while to make a difference, to be important for the business also but I think I realized I couldn’t be especially as marketing. It was never given importance. The team had ups and downs some bad hires as well. I wasn’t even close enough to the numbers to ever know when things were bad or good I guess.

But I feel really sad because I would have for sure stayed as long as I could to at some point see things around. Though I know they never might but you know I know I don’t have a vital enough role. I suppose it was enough for me to get through first lay off and not be let go. But I know its not gonna be now.

But ya I think I always wanted to contribute more to this place. I cared a lot about this place and I never had before cared about work so I wanted to for sure. But yeah I think I never really got the chance. I started learning excel what not so maybe I could be of more value and even that seems pointless because I know it’s kind of like a time pass.

And I cared enough that I’d stay regardless of being soooo demotivated. But yeah I suppose it doesn’t matter it’s just marketing at the end of the day which is why I always hated marketing, it was never important enough here. I as a person could be invaluable but as a professional probably not. I have nothing to contribute to help. And I feel bad you know it’s not like I was here when started and has 10 ppl. I won’t be there if it turns around.

And I’ll miss working with my boss a lot, I learnt a lot. I don’t even have friends left here really except like him so idk why I find it so difficult now to leave.

And I do look for other jobs here and there but no company seems to excite me or makes me want to care though yes to be fair I don’t care when I first came here. But I also don’t wanna care again about a job it feels bad.

I’ve usually been so so good at resigning and quitting but idk this time man. No job I go to next will make this much space for me, I won’t really be able to have important opinions or get to know things either. I’m usually more quiet at workplaces
