It's been a while since I've tried to change money but even as recently as 10 years ago, money changers in a lot of places wouldn't accept even slightly wrinkled bills or bills older than a specific series. Every time before

I'll give you a couple of examples I've been involved with: 1. I was applying for a job at Company A and I had a former co-worker working there. I think it was down to me and 2 other people and the manager asked my former co-worke

I had a similar issue where they claimed I didn’t pay one year. Calling led nowhere but my CPA friend said send them a letter. As in a physical snail mail dispute letter. I could be wrong but I think they have to reply within a certain amou

I remember taking the EWR-SIN flight back in the 2000s in both premium economy and business class. The first time was an experience - such a long flight. Previously I'd have to connect in Europe/Asia. Taking it when it was all bus

For most, none. For power users, you can force specific fare classes/connections/combinations etc. regular sites won't. You can create some zany things for example, getting United to sell you an American connection. Ticketing

If you were MSFT or AAPL, you could issue 0%(or close to it) bonds and investors would lap it up. IIRC AAPL did issue a 0% bond at some point in the last few years.

Nope. Green card requires PERM which I think is a bit more extensive than the H1B process.

Green card job postings do this because it is a requirement to advertise the opening. So you tailor the job description specifically for the person you already employ on a immigrant visa.

I have had pretty good experience with their API support. Generally, if we include our sales rep they will hunt down the right team to get our questions answered if we get the runaround the first time around. The places I've been at do

AFAIK that's pretty much 100% against the license agreement. Data pulled from the terminal is only supposed to be shared with other BBG subscribers. They have more expensive offerings that allow non-subscriber use of data. I have been

I feel you. I’m about to board a flight and Spotify logged me out while I was listening to an offline playlist.

It depends on where you're going to/from and at what time. During rush hour, yeah the subway is faster than taking a cab for my pre-Covid 35 or so block commute. There are some routes that require a bus transfer or a lot of walkin

That’s a totally different scenario - international travel requires a valid travel document. For domestic flights you don’t technically need an id but be prepared to wait a long time and/or be subjected to a invasive questioning/s

Not everything needs to be B2C. There are a ton of problems to solve for B2B - for example reconciling buy side transactions to the street. In this space though usually a bank/fund will spin off a product they developed in house but th

As a former international student, even regular breaks when school would close the dorms were tough. Winter/Spring break especially. Back then there was no AirBnb and no one would do short term rentals. I do not envy those students wit
