    When I flew Emirates quite a while ago, they gave us stickers to put on your headrest if you want to be woken during meal/snack service. It was pretty cool because you can let go and sleep as much as you like without having to worry about missing food. This was an international flight though.

    That and what the person you’re replying to about choosing your words carefully is insane. I was speaking with a rep from my insurance trying to figure out what I need to do for the free annual physical checkup stuff and they were telling me how I should speak to the doctor to avoid getting charged a consultation fee (i.e. don’t ask questions, avoid answering if they ask something about your current health, emphasize that you’re only there for your annual physicals, etc.). And if you don’t have a PCP, you probably have to pay for the visit either way as a “first-time patient” just to get the doctor’s orders for your labs. It’s bonkers navigating the system.

    The door and window of my home office are on opposite sides of the room, so putting my desk against the wall perpendicular to them puts the door on one side (so I can see if someone is coming in) and the window on the other (so I can see if someone is approaching the front door of the house).
