I'm definitely not bitter at all. Nope. But I can emphasize with the poster. I don't really see many "I just barely made the 12k" cut of people. They either blow through it (on company money, usually), or are going to struggle to meet it. It seems like corporate travel is always getting stricter, and with people thinking like my and babymule's company, it becomes more of a chore then it needs to be, especially if you would have to put in time to try and just travel how you want to.

Unfortunately for me, I like having status, so it's a bit harder to just go free agent since 95% of my travel out of pocket is in Y.
