Kind of disappointed with Marriott Bonvoy. Redeeming points is so expensive relative to how long it takes to earn them. Also it doesn’t sound like free nights are easily accessible without a Marriott cc.

Is Hilton any better?

Why do you consult? Because It’s God’s chosen profession? Because it’s better to be upper middle class than anything else? Because you’re passionate about the art of recommending real world strategies that came to you in a Hilton night excel fever dream? Because after graduating from a big name school consulting is the best opportunity to continue your panicky need to be validated by letters?

What is the most amount of times you have Applied to one specific company? It could be different job titles and different states but how many times have you applied to the same company? Sodexo , levy, compass group, Hyatt Hilton Marriott have Applied to all those 30 or 40 times over the past three years. Talk about insanity. I stopped applying six months ago I’m no longer wasting my time with people like this!

The thing about being a lawyer. I grew up not quite poor, but certainly in tough conditions. Tonight I bought my daughter and I two tickets to the world series to see our beloved phillies in an improbable game. When I was a kid, the closest I got was a game on PRISM. I’m a labor lawyer. I spend all my time traveling. Frequent flyer miles paid for the plane, hilton points for the hotel, rental days for the car. Sometimes this job sucks, but sometimes it’s easy to remember how glorious it can be.
