Ditto to the above.
ISSUES ARE BEING RESOLVED. Perhaps not as quickly as you would like, but every day there is more progress.
I have a vivid memory of the United/Continental merger (actually more of a takeover). And the current Marriott/Starwood/Ritz merger is going far smoother than that one did.
The current growing pains are relatively minor. Patience is a virtue. Try to be virtuous....

I wouldn't say it's a waste of time. To me, Twitter is a waste of time, and I never would have seen this, so thank you for sharing it. Your context around it is odd though..."nothing matters anymore". Again, the world is not ending. There are some IT issues in a loyalty rewards program. They're working on them and can't give a timeline yet. That's it. Not really a big deal if you compare it to someone who loses their job, or finds out they have cancer, or whatever. It's understandable to be frustrated, but perspective is important too.

......In the meantime, I couldn't agree more with CPRich. You are wasting everyone's time.

You and I have two different versions of the UA/CO merger. I don't remember nearly as many problems during that merger particularly this far after the conversion. Not saying there weren't issues during the UA/CO merger but I don't remember any program merger as poorly handled as this one.
