@Neal ******

oh, if I did "my bad" I was fuming and must have done a rage typo. Or the levels to which AI and autocorrect want to fuck with out accuracy have leveled up again

@Bart *************

what are you even replying to? Are you on drugs? Check bag 15kg.

@Scott *******

it might sting more if you had followed the context of the conversation. At this point it was due to the language issue I use a third party. I don't expect or ask the business in question to accommodate me.

@Tim *****

nope- one stop. 90 minute flight. There is no mechanism to customize your weight- and my crap weighs what it ways. I don't care about an upcharge. I find the idea of a check bag limit of 15k a bit offensive- but being 30% over weight leading to a 300% price increase is what I think is unreasonable. There is also no mechanism to just say "2 bags"

@Jasper ************

but I like to feel pretty...

@Dave ********

that is a great question! And I'm sorry I have to ask... Do you think this represents their only profit?

Look, there is a difference between "not leaving money on the table" and "making shit up because you think you can get away with it. It isn't even semi justifiable like "want to pay 3 dollars for an email about your flight" or "20 dollars for seat selection and then EVERY seat is a charge beyond that". They are charging 20% or whatever extra to bully you into signing up for a thing where they will charge you 100% of the ticket price every month" and hoping you don't notice.

Despite horror stories to the contrary I do not think you will get in trouble for hobby working. People will say 'blah blah it's still work" but if you aren't making a problem or exploiting something I am absolutely certain you are fine.

@David **********

I've tried, it usually has its own problems though. Especially with the Asian airlines (really I mean "not focused on English speaking market)

What agent did you use for tourist visa?

I wave to the local police when I work in my yard and they drive by. Unless you are getting shaken down I can't imagine someone getting busted for playing in the garden. I suspect any anecdotal stuff about volunteering has more to do with visa abusers and shady organizations.
