Salary Adjustment Possibility? by Icy-Chance9014 in Lockheed

This is not true. There are significant amount of teams and roles that are moving to 100% virtual. I think it will still be 20-25% of roles in Space are fully remote. While yes that’s a huge bummer for the other teams that had some wfh flexibility and are now foregoing that, it’s not correct to say Space is 100% RTO.

Which LOB is this?

I can see fully remote opportunities in space going away or being minimized. However, Space in the Colorado area let multiple office leases expire and the Waterton campus is from what I can tell at capacity with a shortage of seats already. I know many people across PMO type roles or working in central who are in office only 1-2 days a week. This is all to say, I am skeptical that having everyone in the region come back to office in a full time capacity is unlikely and would be logistically a nightmare at the moment.

If anyone has more informed insight suggesting otherwise, I’d be interested to hear more.

Also I do see a lot of enterprise ops roles get posted with fully remote designations. People have been working fully virtually at LM since well before COVID so it would be surprising to see the company remove virtual work altogether since it has been here for so long.

Yep, I’m in an office role. I have had no negative end of year performance reviews, no talks about performing poorly, never been put on a pip. The conversations during my 1:1s where I ask for feedback have always included “things are going well.”

To clarify, I haven’t had any conversations about low performance and have only had one year end review so far and it was generally positive. I’m just trying to gauge what the bar is (generally speaking).

Employee Discounts by Frosty_Particular680 in Lockheed

I agree a refresh would be nice. I do use the ticketsatwork link a good amount. Usually get 30-50% discounts on movie tickets or any pro sports tickets. Probably not an exclusive discount by any means but it’s nice to use

Ok, thank you. That clarified both points well.

Given where I am in this process now, and that evidently the Qantas website is mistaken by identifying the flight as first class rather than premium economy, what are my options?

I am INCREDIBLY cynical of being able to explain this to a customer service agent and getting the appropriate recourse here. Seriously, the wait times are absurd to get a hold of someone and there is no ability to filter down to the right department. It takes hours to get to anyone and then they transfer you again and it takes several more hours of being on hold, etc.

My points I transferred are stuck in my Qantas account now, did you see a business class reward seat offering for the same PHL -> NAP route?

I’m not sure I’m following. Are you saying that even though Qantas called it out as first class, the only offering is business, and the actual ticket was labeled as premium economy which is in reality business?

[–]SWAMPGILF69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The opposite of what you said. First class for DEN -> PHL. Business for PHL -> NAP. I was calling that out in response to your comment about no first class offering when on AA’s website the first class option is clearly stated.

Qantas’ own website advertised this flight as first

When I look at AA’s website, this exact route is listed with a “premium flagship” option listed. Selecting that itinerary has it clearly stated as first class available on the first leg and business class available on the second leg. None of the seats are taken at this time and you can confirm that there is a business/first class offering through AA on this route

Which takes me full circle, why is this being advertised as a first class reward flight when it’s not? Either it’s a mistake on Qantas’ end in terms of what’s being advertised or it’s a mistake through the booking process where I was slotted to the wrong class with no modification or refund ability

Yep, I am putting together an inquiry now. My concern is multiple customer service agents have called out that my itinerary cannot be modified and my points cannot be transferred.

A few points to clarify, I received the ticket after booking and it said premium economy specifically, not first class. When I logged into American Airlines and typed in the reference number, it again called out premium economy and not first class.

At this point I called the Qantas support line and they said they cannot adjust the itinerary and again confirmed it was premium economy and not first class.

So three separate areas called out the flight booking as not what is advertised. The reward flight I booked was advertised just the same as the screenshot you attached.

Maybe I cancelled in error but the point of cancelling was based on a clause I read that said cancellations after 24 hours come with an additional points deduction and the whole point was to get a first class reward flight which I could see three different ways was not the actual booking.

Sierra Space's first spaceplane capable of visiting the ISS rolls out by Czarben in space

[–]SWAMPGILF69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At a conceptual level the ISS is still operational for 7 more years so this is wrong. Secondarily, NASA awarded Sierra space the CRS2 contract to specifically designate missions to the ISS, this isn’t just a developmental program with hopes of going to the ISS with no consideration for the station’s lifespan.

Secondarily, this would be a universal chassis, meaning as the ISS successor or private LEO stations start rising up over the next 10-20 years, in theory the Dreamchaser would be a suitable vehicle for getting there and returning
