@alwaysadblock And finally, United Airlines makes ~8% of their revenue on international flights from cargo alone. That's more than what their credit card and loyalty programs bring in on those flights, and since 8% is what their operating margins are, safe to say it's a critical piece.
@alwaysadblock They also have requirements with airports to have a certain number of seats available for purchase, or else they won't let them retain gates. ATL isn't going to hold a widebody gate for a plane with 100 passenger capacity, because that's fewer passengers shopping in the airport.
@SamLovesHummus@upstatefederlst I think anyone who needs a spike of dopamine in order to meet up with friends or make a Dr.'s appointment on time needs the 'Ol Yeller treatment.
You are beyond cooked if that's the case. Showing up on time is a fundamental requirement for operating in a functional society.
@SamLovesHummus@sincere_worm Not everything is a "mental health condition".
The term used for someone who is late to everything is "bum" or "loser", not "person experiencing mental health crisis".
@TXMCtrades You’re both right.
It’s 100% a bad financial decision, but it can also be worth it to you personally.
People make bad financial decisions all the time to better their lives, and that’s fine. Most people just aren’t aware that it’s a bad financial decision.
@KrisWysong@leevalueroach The money you used to pay it off early could have been invested and made you significantly wealthier.
If debt is too scary of a concept, don’t take out a loan for hundreds of thousands of dollars in the first place. Just pay cash for your house.
@MarTao1762@leevalueroach Then why even borrow for a house in the first place if it was going to be such a huge mental burden?
Just rent and save until you can buy a house outright if the thought of having a 30-year, ultra-low interest mortgage is too hard to bear.
@valeriemgray Replace “English” in this tweet with any other brown-skinned country and tell me how this isn’t just blatantly racist.
“Jacob beautifully describes the Nigerian mongrel…”
@rawmilkhoney It’s very simple; Sydney Sweeney is not our wife, mother, or daughter.
We don’t care if 100 million people see her tits and want to fuck her, because she’s just a concept to us.
For the women in our lives that we know and care about, it’s a completely different story.
@Ukraine Remember everyone, they’re just trying to defend themselves.
By targeting residential buildings in Moscow with drone attacks and then bragging about it on X.
