@kiwicom247 missed flight because of previous flights' delays...am I covered by the guarantee? or am I better off paying the money for another ticket through a different airline?

@TCFCares @melatron2 I'm also having issues with this!!

Being frugal is about spending money wisely. Being cheap is about spending no money...this is stretching too far #awakeningcompassion

[Jacob Derry @JacobDerry]

Can you stretch too far? "yes" says @scottsonenshein #awakeningcompassion

[Jacob Derry @JacobDerry]

But the most memorable leaders are those who are compassionate - @HQCJane #awakeningcompassion

[Jacob Derry @JacobDerry]

Compassion gets gendered pretty quickly...it is often seen as "soft" or "harming competence" - @HQCJane #awakeningcompassion

[Jacob Derry @JacobDerry]

Compassionate leadership can trickle down - @HQCJane #awakeningcompassion

[Jacob Derry @JacobDerry]

Just giving a high pressure scenario will help show if and how someone will respond with compassion - @monicaworline #awakeningcompassion

[Jacob Derry @JacobDerry]

Ask for constraints to be imposed, experiment, try things. That's how you "stretch" - @ScottSonenshein #awakeningcompassion
