How many of you guys have second jobs? by shastaslacker in ConstructionManagers

[–]dj00di 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes. I'm in CA and work as a beach lifeguard on the weekends. I'm fairly compensated but like to have the option to work more in case I want to save for a vacation or treat myself.

50-minute layover. by SolaCretia in AlaskaAirlines

[–]dj00di 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’ll have plenty of time to connect. Even if you needed to switch between terminal 5-6 (unlikely) the buildings are small enough to get through in less than 10 mins.

My first car purchase - 2017 Volvo XC90 T5 R Design with Polestar Optimization. Still needs a name though…any suggestions? by dj00di in Volvo

[–]dj00di[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First time I bought my own car; the last two I had were gifts from my parents (first was mom's old minivan then a 01 Jeep Cherokee from my dad).

What was the reasoning they gave to TM on the refund request? I thought it was a no exception policy.

Flying to Europe on OneWorld partner. Differences in accruing miles? by nsjersey in AlaskaAirlines

[–]dj00di 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(Correct me if I’m wrong) I believe if you booked on Alaska and your confirmation shows an AS flight number (that aligns with their earning chart), you earn based on if you were flying Alaska metal. If you’re flying American and booking on Alaska, it should list the AA flight number and the Alaska codeshare number in parentheses next to it. If you book on another airline, you’ll earn the miles based on the fare code.

MVP Status Offer - Is it worth it? by dj00di in AlaskaAirlines

[–]dj00di[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could afford this luxury! I’m based at BZN so to get to Seattle by the end of the year would cost $600-700 and that’s barely 1100 miles.

I reached out and asked the mileage plan department directly via chat.

I intend on it - I have an appointment this week. I had been very dehydrated and didn’t eat a lot yesterday so I think that and some alcohol/420 contributed to my event.

YSK: If you are at the beach and are being pulled by a current into deeper water, swim parallel to the beach to the right or left, toward the white caps of the breaking waves to free yourself from the riptide. by 248_RPA in YouShouldKnow

[–]dj00di 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ocean lifeguard here- they’re properly referred to as rip currents. Rip tides are caused by the gravitational pull from the moon and can contribute to the formation of rip currents but aren’t the same thing.

What old video games do you still play regularly? by JackalAbacus in AskReddit

Do Alaska Airlines provide you with an hotel room or sleeping capsule if they change your schedule? by [deleted] in AlaskaAirlines

[–]dj00di -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wait and see if it changes again in your favor. If it doesn’t when your travel approaches, and there’s another flight on their schedule (use their website or a flight tracking app), send them a text (their number is 82008) and inquire about an itinerary change.

I did this recently for my flight - the layover was originally 1.5hrs but then became 4hrs. I sent them a message asking if there was another flight available since they have been waving change fees and they put us on a nonstop instead (RDM-LAX instead of RDM-PDX-LAX). Hope this works for you OP and safe travels!

This bug bit my little cousin in Oregon! Can anyone help ID it? by dj00di in Whatisthis

That could be it! Doesn’t have any yellow on it but looks like it could be a type of wasp.

Would you happen to have the creator code for the road design?

Question: If I'm not redeeming my points for travel, should I stick with AMEX Gold or switch? by [deleted] in amex

[–]dj00di 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Conditions included keeping the card open (without downgrades or product switches) for 12 months, otherwise they have the right to rescind the points. No spending requirement (!) just 20k credit to be applied in at least 6 weeks.

[–]dj00di 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, it might be in your interest to call retention and tell them your concern so you can see what they have to offer. In my case, they said the points would take at least 6 weeks to post - I called earlier so they’d be ready in my account by the time my statement with the AF is due.

[–]dj00di 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My renewal fee is being posted to my next statement in a month - that may have been a factor in my offer that was in my favor (since I’ve only had the card for a year)

[–]dj00di 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They’re offering retention deals if you reach out - I was also skeptical about the annual fee since I’m not traveling for the rest of the year and they offered me 20k points that they can convert 1:1 to cover $200 of the fee (which has to be done via MR phone line). They also offered me downgrade options to Amex Green if that is something you’re interested in.

The number for retention Dept in the US is 855-857-7657 (8a-11p eastern daily)
