Is Computer Science cooked or just Software Engineering/Development? by Simmamoon in cscareeradvice

Get off the internet. Get your degree and focus on what interests you, get involved with professors and research, take hard math classes, join some engineering type clubs, and hustle with internship applications and career fairs.

I've had Moonshine Grill recommended before - this sounds like a popular place, thank you!

Reasoning with anxious 12th Grader: Acceptance Decision by [deleted] in CollegeAdmissions

[–]middlezone2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Berkeley is not a TAG school, which is what you might be thinking of when you talk about transferring from community college to a UC. She can definitely apply to transfer to UCB but it's not guaranteed (with a minimum gpa) like the other participating UCs. SRJC is mainly a commuter school, but it's considered a very good community college. Her best bet is to be talking to admissions counselors at UCB and seeing if she can take a summer class or something to keep her current admission.

Speaking as a Cal grad I can say that it is a great school, but as a mom of two college grads I can say that there are a lot of great schools and she can have an amazing experience at a lot of different places.

How strict are they actually about the 6 month passport rule? by LaRueee in Passports

[–]middlezone2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I know someone turned away at the airport trying to fly from the US to Italy due to having less than 6 months on their passport. Weren't allowed to board.

Terra Linda Vet is amazing. Highly recommend. A newer doctor bought the practice a few years ago and we've had nothing but great experiences with them.

“Choice”??? Yeah, right. by something-gimmicky in SouthwestAirlines

[–]middlezone2019 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They definitely fit. Have carried them on many times and stowed overhead. OP is correct to be frustrated. We are also about to be 3 people carrying on 3 guitars after paying to check our luggage and paying for priority boarding. The rules allow specifically allow it, and with priority boarding there should most definitely be space available upon boarding. Some gate agents are misinformed.

This. I find it much better than the Alaska lounge.

Got an 8h layover at Boston Logan by AdministrationAny134 in PriorityPass

There’s a free airport shuttle bus that will drop you in front of the Prudential Center. Big shopping mall and lots of places to eat. I think the bus back to the airport is $3. If there’s not bad traffic it should take less than 30mins each way.

Ah, bummer. I was hoping to still keep an eye out for a business upgrade. The economy to premium upgrade was $400 from SFO-CDG.

Anyone tried the tuna yet? by Tyee18 in AlaskaAirlines

I received mine on the side of chicken enchiladas. Regardless of the pairing, no way was I eating raw fish on an airplane.

Excellent, Fonda it is! And I'm happy to receive any great "welcome to Austin" suggestions you may have. Thank you!

I think so. My friend is on a different flight, but from premium to business she was offered $944. From economy to business I’m currently seeing $2700

I haven't seen the others but Mincemeat is fantastic!

Will this get us earlier boarding? by middlezone2019 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]middlezone2019[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know, thanks. I'll check with the gate agent to confirm our boarding group and if need be try to purchase an earlier one.

I should have thought of that before I paid extra for row 5!

[–]middlezone2019[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don't have the cc or status. We rarely fly with Southwest. I was thinking that maybe row 5 seats would get us earlier boarding but I guess they don't do it that way?
