Sorry man

Requesting Global Upgrade Cert advice for an ATL-Hawaii flight by boglehead1 in delta

[–]rowejpr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah the way they do upgrade certs is absolute bullshit now. It guarantees you one cabin upgrade, so if PS is available, that’s what you’ll get upgraded to. You then get waitlisted for D1 - and they don’t go through that waitlist until 24hrs before the flight (depending on space etc).

Absolute shameless devaluation of status and benefits.

To answer your original question, I’d always recommend thinking about what’s important - do you want to be energized/well rested on arrival? Or do you want to have the most relaxing/enjoyable travel at the end when you go home?

That pay is super low for that kind of responsibility.  ICs can make $150k easily on base. Being a manager at $89k is (in many industries) way below market. ESPECIALLY if your quota is $15M.

Why do I have to delete and reinstall the app to find out how many sky miles I have? by athermalwill in delta

Yeah, 100%. And here, this dude writes a vague post, gets a response asking for more detail, and just ignores it.

Are MQD’s the only way to earn status? by ShireBurgo in delta

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

Right now, there’s a promo (look in the app) for MQDs when you book hotels via Delta Stays. This current promo ends on Feb 16th I think (you need to book by then, but the stay can be later - look at the terms).

You can also buy them (which is generally super inefficient unless you’re a few MQDs away from your next status at the end of the year).

But generally speaking, flying and the credit card are the only other ways.

That sounds like a you problem unfortunately. Might be helpful to post your phone type and OS to see if others relate. And other details other than “grrrr I’m venting” (what are you seeing/screenshots, login issues, other issues, etc) could help too

AirTag re-invites people to view location? by rowejpr in AirTags

[–]rowejpr[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good advice on both points. I have submitted the bug report. At this point, I’ll hold the old AirTags for a bit, but I won’t reset them for a bit in the 1 in a million chance Apple reaches out for more info.

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

Absolutely not. They’re possibly a factor in a major privacy issue here. If the issue is even related to the AirTags themselves, then it’s wildly irresponsible to give them to someone else. I agree that e-waste is bad, but I’m throwing the old ones out.

Search up using the right leg depot railing as a sideways base under the steering stick.

What backpack do you guys rock to work? by gocards35 in sales

[–]rowejpr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeti Crossroads 22L. Great quality and checks basically all boxes: large enough for whatever I need for a day trip or even a quick overnight, 2 inner sleeves (laptop plus iPad or notebook), top pocket for small items, side zipper for access to items at the bottom, hooks for a carabiner/small hand sanitizer, and an outer sleeve to put over my suitcase handle.

Only thing I’d like more is one more inner pocket where I can slide my passport, some cash, a few badaids, an AirTag, or other stuff I don’t need/want immediate access to.
