Have her ask the GA's to page Pandy Reterson.

Not only will she get on the next flight, but a zillion :rolleyes:'s will show up in her :rolleyes: Pass account.

Oh wait, were you asking about my internal prospect? I'd probably manage the project from NY but would spend a considerable amount of time in Australia, based out of our office in SYD.

I was more asking where the external offers were coming from, and I can't begin to tell you how jealous I am over the travel and the chance you're going after. Makes the possibility of my sometime trips to CLE seem :rolleyes: in comparison.

I don't want to disclose the names of the companies. I'm apparently kinda visible in the industry I work in. So, I get targeted by head hunters on occasion.

I've made my fair share of trips to CLE (well, actually, only 1. My constant trips to AVP are a better example). My job isn't all roses, sunshine, and puppies. There's a sufficiently huge amount of :rolleyes: involved. I promise.

The project in AU would be kick-arse. I'm not going to lie.

On the phone with a not-so-competent agent trying to change some reward flights. I think it might be time to hang up and try again.

Call ALCO's personal assistant, he/she is lonely without all the calls now!

Hyatt just sent me another offer, 12 nights to Diamond, actual miles + bonus + bonus 2k per NIGHT. Sadly jsut seems linked to my gold passport and not a code I can give out to you. :(

I might need to involve Claudio. Actually, CO should make a deposit into my TravelBank account for the training I just provided to this agent. :rolleyes:

That can definitely be a bit of a curse - I get mailings, e-mails, and calls every month about opportunities to run an organization. Those who know me well understand the absolute last thing I want to be is a president (here or elsewhere).

Why do you keep doing this to me?

I get the same. I already handle more billing issues than I ever cared to get into.
I used to run my own company and I left it because paperwork is :rolleyes: billing is :rolleyes::rolleyes: and taxes are :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

In honor of baglady, Platinum Airways has inaugurated daily nonstop service to Kearney, NE from Denver. Service will be provided with Platinum Airways' luxurious 19 seat Aero Hotter turboprop.

Thank you very much. I'll do a PR Blitz for you ;)

The GA sounds like she needs to go to sfogate's GA Boot camp:mad: I hope she gets on the next flight!

He/she must be so happy ALCO went through with the wedding (and more importantly honeymoon) so no more calls!

Meanwhile, the person who has already earned three Platinum Extras and has posted in the Hyatt forum that a double-credit for stays promotion would be ideal gets :rolleyes:

So, the agent seems to have come through in the end, after consulting a supervisor. Time to log into my reservation and see whether all is correct . . . .
