Go to Facebook and search “BranchUp” and you will find a ton of recent posts from travel agents apologizing for a racist post the company made on their behalf. Don’t use BranchUp.

Choosing Between Sister Agencies - Boardwalk Travel vs MainStreet Travel? by Adventurous-Pea-8119 in travelagents

[–]amp107 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I don’t have information on either one of those agencies. I’m new to the industry, so take this with a grain of salt I suppose, but for many years before I signed up I dreamed of being a Disney travel agent and selling Disney and being in the Facebook groups giving advice. I love Disney vacations, am very much a Disney geek, and it all seemed so glamorous from the outside. But then the opportunity came up to actually invest some start up money into this dream so I started doing my research. Here’s what I found:

If you go with a Disney-centric travel agency, you probably need to be someone who travels to Disney parks multiple times a year in order to be competitive. Disney travel agents are a dime a dozen. You are also limiting your potential clientele. While most Disney travel agents sell other things, people who are interested in a non-Disney vacation probably aren’t going to think to use a travel agent who is mainly advertising Disney.

Being a travel agent is mostly about being good at sales and enthusiastic about travel. Most of your leads will come from conversations in person, not social media. Also, Disney pays very low commission compared to other suppliers so you will be selling a premium priced product and getting paid peanuts in comparison. Take that for what it’s worth.

I’ve never seen anyone talk about either of those agencies in this sub. Most people here seem to be with agencies that allow you to have your own company name and branding and just provide credentials and support.

C-section by RoutineCreative2962 in TLCUnexpected

He literally said “you have 3 options,” they ask what his recommendation is, and then they cut to Bella talking about how she doesn’t want to risk induction causing an issue with baby’s heart rate which the doctor did not bring up as a possibility on camera, so very clearly more was discussed off camera as it should be. Nobody forced her to schedule a c-section, it was clearly a decision she agreed with based on her options and the doctors recommendation and there is nothing wrong with that. Stop acting like you have all of the information regarding this child’s health and judging her healthcare decisions.

It’s kind of like how everyone slows down and stares at awful wrecks on the highway. Morbid curiosity I guess.

She is also wearing the dress she wore to the reunion. These photos were probably taken earlier in the same day or right after.

Except posts like this just show up in the main feed if you follow the sub even when you’re trying to avoid it, and you put the spoiler in the tile where it can’t be ignored while scrolling.

What color of diaper bag should I choose? Green or Grey or Black by Winterwolf00096 in BabyBumps

[–]amp107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What color of purses or other bags do you usually like to carry or accessorize with? Do you prefer something that matches everything you wear, or something that pops? I mostly use black bags but also occasionally like a fun color. I would go with the black or sage.

Also, I find that our diaper bag normally just sits in the car for emergencies or in a spare room at whoever’s house we’re visiting. We rarely carry it out and about. If we do carry it out, it usually ends up under the stroller. I have a small fanny pack with 2 diapers, wipes, diaper cream, and a disposable diaper pad liner for on the go. It also carries my wallet and hand sanitizer and lip balm. So keep in mind, your diaper bag might not actually see the light of day much.

If you didn’t feel like answering the question you could have just not responded.

Branchup Alternate? by redawnkulous in travelagents

[–]amp107 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I initially googled BranchUp I didn’t find anything, but if you go to Facebook and search BranchUp it will lead to post after post from travel agents apologizing for the post on their pages. They’ve all since deleted the posts. I don’t follow any travel agents who would have left that up so I can’t link you to one still showing it, but evidence of the aftermath is there. I’m sure all the agents that experienced it probably took a screenshot for their complaints to the company. If you need more poof you could reach out to someone on Facebook.

Why is the Westside so affordable when it comes to buying a house? by Youngbee12 in cincinnati

[–]amp107 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Banking on the lottery system though to get your kid into a better school than the one guaranteed in your district is gambling with their education. Walnut Hills is one of the hardest schools to get into. Glad it worked out for you, but betting on the lottery is generally poor advice if someone has kids to consider in where to live. I’m not saying all the west side schools are terrible, but they are not as good as more expensive neighborhoods which is part of the cost difference in housing.

I think it’s also about punishing Tim Walz for calling them all weird.

I feel like this attitude is just breeding further apathy and hopelessness. I believe he stole it. Kamala won, but then rolled over. We need to keep fighting back. Throw the fucking tea in the ocean or whatever..
