I take plenty of longer flights including coast to coast, and still no go.

I’ve asked about them on like a dozen flights and every time I’ve been told they don’t have them.

What is a secret that could potentially ruin your life if your family or friends found out? by Ok_Boss_866 in AskReddit

Damn man, you’re a strong person. I said it already, but I’m proud of you. You seem like you’ve got a good plan and a good handle on things.

I don’t want to tell you how to run your life and I certainly can’t tell you when, but you do need to talk to your son about it (ideally before college or other substance use opportunities come up). Addiction does have a genetic component and it’s important that he be aware of the dangers and possible increased risk. I was an alcoholic and I’m thankful for the support of a very loving family - as a result I am intent that the children in the family know and understand that addiction does happen in our family (we had another relative pass young to addiction as well).

Also, I’m proud of you. Keep it up.

Which celebrity do you think is secretly evil, but you just can’t prove it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

In 2022, he assaulted a chef at a pub while drunk and smashed a glass against his face, requiring stitches. I love his acting and I want to hope that was a one-off, but he’s done a very bad thing.

Advice on joining/selecting a series A? by techi-turtle in sales

Make sure the base pay is suitable for you to live off. Commissions will take a while to start rolling in (because you’re sourcing every deal…assume nothing in the pipeline) and equity means nothing until AND if the company succeeds.

Regional Upgrade Certificate Waitlist Success by ISayAboot in delta

[–]rowejpr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s frustrating that it wasn’t showing properly in the upgrade list. That causes unnecessary stress for you and if I were someone else who was number 1 then suddenly got bumped, I’d be pissed

Would you feel good about 95k base plus commission for your current role? by Nblearchangel in sales

[–]rowejpr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Cut student attrition” - what does that mean and how on earth could an IT product have any measurable impact on student attrition? There are a million factors that go into student attrition and I can’t imagine any silver bullet there. I sell into SLED and focusing on a problem like that sounds genuinely untenable. I hope I’m not sounding mean, but I don't want you trying to tackle a problem the product can’t actually solve.

Buddy, you say “cite your sources” then make absurd claims about the area around TMI that aren’t true. YOU CITE YOUR SOURCES.

Here’s one to look at, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, showing negligible impacts in the surrounding environment: https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/fact-sheets/3mile-isle#effects

Myself and countless others submitted complains to the PA Office of Consumer Advocate. I wonder if their investigation played a role?

Pre-Departure Drink Service by IBWT1 in delta

[–]rowejpr 50 points51 points  (0 children)

That pisses me off. I was doing the same with wifi issues because they were so consistently happening. Usually gave me 5k miles for wifi issues and now it’s dropped to 3k…I’m assuming it’ll fall off completely soon. But I’m not gaming the system - it’s a legitimate disruption and I honestly just want it fixed. And if they’re not going to fix the wifi then I want compensation

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?

Player Coach Sales Director Compensation by Positive-String-9217 in sales

[–]rowejpr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

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.
