  1. What communication methods are preferred in Asia?
  2. I have stayed exclusively at Marriott/SPG properties for 2 years now. All I can report is a fairly regular question asking purpose of my visit. If you answer that question while visibility paranoid, maybe that’d draw suspicion. More than likely, the Q is for their notations and metrics to determine what type of travelers the location is receiving and nothing more. I meet the majority of my clients in the lobby, and have zero issues. Confidence can make you blend right in with a busy hotel lobby with many coming/going. I feel you may be overthinking the whole thing. I’d bet any (alleged) policy changes would be surrounding very obvious, reckless, and problem guests that are ruining the stays for others.
  3. Who is feeding you your lines through the headphones?
  4. To actually respond.. I sat next to Ivanka Trump in First class flying from DCA-JFK. It was extremely cool to see how secret service sets perimeters and the process to board her. I didn’t say a word to her or anything but was eying the cool notebook with the presidential seal on the front.
  5. I’m unsure since I “set it and forget it”. I’m sure there was a prompt to confirm reaccuring billing somewhere when I created my account.
  6. We are billed monthly for our ad. The Gift function and timeframes you see are a client specific feature.
  7. Ouch. If the client pays for travel, I strictly DO NOT “Double Dip” and stay longer for other business. I do not know industry standard but that’s how I have always operated.
  8. Man that damn 5 MPH over speeding ticket is really causing a pain still?!
  9. Entering Canada (Vancouver specifically) has proved difficult. I’m sure I hit all the red flags. Short visit, traveling alone, no known friends in the country. I know how to answer the varying questions effectively but it sure was intimidating.
  10. Do you follow this philosophy with Netflix too? ?
  11. It’s OVER. Any other variation constitutes a mental illness!
  12. I accept them on a case by case basis. If we both can be efficient in the scheduling, typically that helps things go smoothly overall. If I am too tired or have an early flight, I definitely turn them down.
  13. I plan to attend on the “tail end” of the festivities.
  14. Would Daddy consider linking the Review site again? I feel it’d boost traffic here in general. More active members I’m sure would equate to more $ donated.
  15. Giving you really rough estimates here but 10%? I have experienced the PayPal reversal firsthand. Despite our contact forming via registered PayPal emails and disputing the reversal with Paypal with this fact, I lost. Venmo is ok but I dislike it since I’m sure a certain frequency makes them watch you closely. Cash will always be king and my primary choice. When asked about electronic, my answer is “For a first time client, I always accept cash”. This answer seems to be received well.
  16. I didn’t want to offend with what I think is a fair offer. Also it’s my intention to buy a mechanically sound car not a project that’s in need of another resto.
  17. So purchase is a No Go. His asking price is in line with a fully restored car but still on the high end considering some small issues. Once I checked it out, he showed me many more issues and the list is just too long for me to justify his asking price. Damn!
  18. What’s App is essential for countries outside of the US. I’m pretty sure 75%+ of my contacts in Canada use it (I have never worked outside of North America).
  19. I’m surprised by the amount of Burner Phone people. Of course I did know of @azdr0710 and his circa 2005 Burner! ?
