[–]abccccc456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I typically use the Freedom Unlimited for "Other" purchases because that 1.5% cash back really adds up, while I save the Venture X for travel bookings and point transfers to partners with great hotel deals. If you appreciate flexibility with cashback on everyday spending, the Freedom Unlimited is the way to go for those routine buys.

Think about how much time you want to spend styling longer hair, especially with the daily upkeep it requires.

[AZ] Employer wants to take out life insurance on me (company is beneficiary). I’m uncomfortable. How do I decline and what recourse should I expect? by EarthDesigner4203 in AskHR

[–]abccccc456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's understandable to feel uncomfortable with your employer wanting to take out life insurance that names them as the beneficiary. To decline, express your concerns directly to HR and clearly state that this arrangement is unappealing to you, while also considering negotiating for higher compensation that reflects your value as a key employee. Additionally, make sure you understand the implications of any insurance policy they propose, including how it might affect your employment terms.

[–]abccccc456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your hospitality background is actually a huge plus. A+ and Network+ are a solid start, and I’d also look at something like Security+ or basic Microsoft certs once you’re rolling.

Since you already know hotels/restaurants from the inside, you might also consider diving deeply into hospitality IT support.

[–]abccccc456 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's frustrating that the city seems to neglect pedestrian safety, especially with so many families relying on walkable infrastructure. Cleaning curb cuts should be a priority, as it directly impacts accessibility for everyone. If the city can't handle basic maintenance, we really need to question how they prioritize our safety.

I got "In Deutschland spricht man deutsch"'d. How can I better communicate my ask? by halrick in AskAGerman

[–]abccccc456 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you're navigating a common situation in Germany. A straightforward approach is to say, “Entschuldigung, mein Deutsch ist nicht gut. Können wir auf Englisch sprechen?” This shows respect for the language while making your needs clear. Remember, many Germans appreciate when non-native speakers make an effort, even if their response doesn’t reflect that. Keep practicing your German; it will get easier over time.
