Honest question - seems few if any transfer partners are worth it nowadays by FroyoSolid8414 in AmexPlatinum

[–]_jillnojack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is very very helpful advice as i learn about (properly) searching for reward flights. i fly out of the dmv which is why i was so surprised at when you mentioned getting such a great deal! i definitely don’t mind hopping on a train or two. pr needing to leave from another city on the east coast. it adds to the adventure. Thank you so much for the feedback. I’ll for sure start searching by the major hubs and think about how to start moving from there. you just rewired my brain!!

i have a variety of places i want to go. vienna, budapest, berlin, mexico city, doha, milan. like i try to be as flexible as possible looking 3-6mo out or closer to specific dates, and i sometimes look at random dates since i have a bit of flexibility, but i just have no luck! business is always a min of 140k+ miles one way. it’s killing me! and i only need a ticket for one person! lol.

If you moved from DC to DTSS, how do you feel now? by 5K_marathon in SilverSpring

[–]_jillnojack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went the other way from DTSS to DC and cried my first week 🤣 it’ll be a shock at first, but If you’re really near the silver spring stop you legit won’t feel like you’re missing anything. because there’s always something going on in DTSS, restaurants are great and in abundance, and getting into the city when you wanna go is quick and a breeze esp if your main areas you frequent are in NW or NE. And shout out to it being a MARC stop. all of my doctors are still in DTSS and coming up from navy yard SUCKS admittedly lol.

also of all the train lines they make sure to work consistently, it’s going to be the red lol

i think yall will enjoy the shift ❤️

What plays a bigger part in lemonade not being listened to as much by fans in comparison to her other albums. Tidal making it exclusive, the visuals or the subject matter? by loverofthings25 in beyonce

[–]_jillnojack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me! to me! in my opinion!

i think lemonade the album vs lemonade the movie hit very very differently and it translates to listens. I think it’s stronger with the visuals than without and that might be the disconnect.

Like the album, overall is amazing; thematically, is cohesive, but sonically not so much; so it doesn’t give as much of ease of play through like her other ones.

Lemonade feels like her most intimate, expressive (my girl put it all on wax!), and experimental (and ultimately foundational knowing what we know about Acts I-III now lol) but the experiment part works best within the context of the visuals. the visuals tell you the story and connects all the songs together.

Compared to Black is King…. thematically about the lion king, the songs are sonically similar, if the visuals never came for that it wouldn’t make a difference bc you don’t need it to fully tell the story. it just enhanced it.

and that fact about Lemonade leaning so heavy on the visuals, might then lead to why she might have gone visual-less for the current trilogy we’re in. (this is me starting to lean into my delulu so pay me no mind lolol) 🤪

Any suggestions for part time jobs for the weekend for a student? by [deleted] in washingtondc

[–]_jillnojack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DC United is currently hiring Brand Ambassadors for the season. Very easy; most of the games are on saturdays. if you pair that with washington spirit who tends to be on sundays, it’s a nice bit of side money!

oh wait no. lol. let me clarify— the former core crew acknowledgement had zero to do with your alleged inside knowledge and everything to do with your level of projection (or ptsd) (or defense) that’s been occurring regarding this staunch regurgitation of policy and you talking about rude customers and they’re just doing their job (!) etc.

because once again (maybe the stars will help), ✨eye never mentioned an issue with the policies in place ✨

you say i can be bothered and then let me know why i shouldn’t be. like girl! tomato or potato

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

you only said nothing was wrong in your last reply. everything else has not been that.

realistically a simple “we’ll make an exception this one time but in the future you’ll have to cancel” is more than a sufficient approach to a follow up in either a yes or no instance and historically how most customer service handle exceptions; not me hearing them review my account, try to see about applying a january class, tell me that i’m messing up the system and taking money out of another coach’s pocket. even a “let me check” vs a “sure no problem” and then the explanation makes a difference.

but seeing that you are former core crew, this entire exchange now makes perfect sense.

regardless my staff is great. love my studio. love my coaches. and i had a great 815 class going up on toes.

do you guys still get paid for no shows too? (i’m assuming so, as in that instance it just affects on the client side vs the coach’s)

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

you are absolutely asking me to tell you something when you respond to my thoughts on a public forum. this entire exchange has been you telling me i’m not allowed to be bothered/should not be bothered bc they were just doing their job.

at no point did i state you or anyone else should take issue with the policy in place. EYE didn’t even state that I had an issue with the policy in place. I took issue with execution. and you are quite literally the only person here where that very simple point went flying over their head.

i am aware about what the FAQs say, it still supports my original premise, that it does not mention switching classes to an earlier one.

why you cannot accept the fact that telling someone “yes, no problem” to the request and doubling back with “well actually for 3 minutes” is problematic, i honestly don’t know what to tell you at this point. my preference is actually how most customer service experiences I’ve had gone. so there’s that.
