I had an employer like that a while back. They insisted we rent cars from Hertz when other places were 1/2 the price. I ended up having a long talk with the purchasing director about it. He explained that the company got what he called rebates but which really amounted to kickbacks for us meeting a contracted number of rental days. They had similar arrangements for air travel, hotels, etc. I asked where in my travel budget I'd see these rebates credited. After that, he had no problem with my saving the company money and I could rent/fly/stay however I wanted! :D
One of my favs was a buddy who asked his assistance to book him to SEA. She followed the letter of the rules and booked him on WN with about 4 stops and several changes of planes.... |
Yesterday I drove my son back to school for soccer practice. I parked in the high school parking lot behind the Performing Art Center and got out to watch him. When I returned to my car, it had a big dent on the rear fender. I asked a guy by the back stage entrance if he had seen anyone hit my car. Of course not and there was no note either.
I noticed that the PAC had cameras on every corner of the building so I thought that perhaps they had taped surveilance. So this morning I called and found out that it's only live feed but the guy took down my name and number and said he would ask around. I just assumed he was being polite. Much to my surprise he called back. He found the person that hit my car. Now I have to wait until Monday to call their insurance company since it's a Ryder Truck rental. |

If this is academia you can go with less of the "IBM clone" look of navy suit, white shirt and red tie. Show your personality a bit. Let them know who you are. Don't go overboard with silly stuff, but a shirt and tie that's less conservative won't hurt.

As far as driving from NJ is concerned, you might want to listen to the traffic reports (1060 is your friend) and take 295 to 76/676 if traffic on 95 through town is :rolleyes:.

My experience driving around PHL always gets my dander up. It was back in the days before I95 went all the way through town. (I know, I'm dating myself there)

If you have flexible supply lines (the kind that either look like a rubber hose, or a flexible braided metal hose), the washers in the connectors can go bad, and it is possible to over-tighten those and ruin the washer. If so, you'll probably just need to shut off the water supply valve, take the hose off, and take it to a hardware store to get a replacement. Be sure to take it with you, though, as while the faucet end of the hose is a standard size, there are a variety of supply valve sizes and connection styles, and you'll need one to match.
My partner just asked me if polygamy was legal in California… free flights is tempting. ;)

It's predicted here tomorrow afternoon/night. Glad my flight out of ATL on Monday isn't until late afternoon. Hopefully any mess at ATL should be cleared up by then.
