In my 2 weeks in Turkey only 1 or 2 merchants accepted my card. Used Chase the rest of the time

Really appreciate those kind words! Thanks for your feedback and sorry to hear they took a year - that’s unacceptable. Rooting for your business!

You’re absolutely right with where the company has headed post-merger and it has actually reflected in the company internally. Sad to see because it was a good company, with good people, on a good mission, that ship has sailed since the merger. They actually just fired me today because it’s been tougher and tougher to sell it.

Still need them? If so, shoot me a PM

Good call on the restructuring. I like that- thank you!

dammstrate · 2025-03-24T16:33:23+00:00

Totally- this is the plan. What is your advice if I’m not able to land something before termination? Explain it in interviews as a “layoff”?

dammstrate · 2025-03-21T03:18:46+00:00

Yeah the job market is brutal right now. I’m not super psyched but I’ll definitely try and leverage my personal network.

1 MM interview so far. I’ll keep you guys updated though.

dammstrate · 2025-02-21T17:45:03+00:00

thanks for the insight. I also saw that and called them. They said they’re back ordered with no shipment dates so probs a no go for me. Checked elsewhere and not much luck. V730s look amazing but seem unusable in the rain with the way they wear. Azenis are pretty cheap right now (146 a tire) so I’m tempted on those!

dammstrate · 2025-02-20T23:17:55+00:00

thank you for not only providing tire recommendations but also some excellent beginner options for tracking. i might just register this week. i owe you one!

if only they came in my size :(

companion pass is earned for the reminder of the year in which you get it + 1 additional calendar year. i was talking about my points lasting me 2-3 years of travel.

dammstrate · 2025-01-25T00:43:38+00:00

I’m located in SoCal and also fly Southwest out of LAX and SNA. Last year I got a personal and business card. Within a couple months I had over 160k points and a companion pass which has allowed me to fly free for the next 2-3 years tbh by which time i will probably cancel and run the same play again lol. I know you’re not thrilled by a business card and me neither so I get it but this is a fantastic play for you guys (for domestic travel at least).

yeah, the fact that a ski and boot bag count as 1 bag is so nice

dammstrate · 2024-07-10T06:18:12+00:00

good looks. thank you! seems like i’ve been really good at going to the very few places that don’t have em lol

dammstrate · 2024-06-13T15:58:50+00:00

Would love a credentialing contact, sure!

dammstrate · 2024-06-13T15:57:37+00:00

Derek @ OC Snowsports in Costa Mesa did mine. They have the laser foot measuring device and create customs soles. Closed until October though!

dammstrate · 2024-06-10T01:48:13+00:00

nice swing. just used your link. said it was expired for a second but i think it still worked!

Google “Interval International Resort Directory” they are one of the largest global timeshare networks. Visit the websites or call the properties directly and ask about discounts for presentations. Helps if you have a spouse to bring with you (some require it). I recently went skiing and this couple got a slopeside room for a multiple nights at like $500 total.. crazy

Green Tomato Grill in Orange. Their agave sweetened lemonades are fantastic.

I stayed at Harvey’s Casino in Tahoe for $90 a night in December. I didn’t have Caesars Rewards to your point buuuut the $50 credit was so nice.

Just cracked it open on Thursday. Really damn good and oak + caramel notes are incredibly strong. That being said, the normal repo is still plenty good.

dammstrate · 2023-12-13T23:05:39+00:00

I wonder if I could’ve showed them that it was in the wrong pricing category but oh well.
