I'm never doing a flight this early again. Gotta board at 4:30 so I'm probably gonna have to get up at like... 330 and even that might be cutting it close

I used to get up anywhere from 2-4 am on a regular basis for my job, you'll live


yeah me too

but I could have avoided this if I paid more for a ticket so I'm going to do that in the future

This for business travel? If so, the one extra night of hotel room isn't going to break anyone's bank, so you shouldn't put yourself through that kind of travel pain.

yeah it is, but they're pretty anal about travel budgets because we're a pretty small nonprofit. The sponsoring organization would only pay for one night and for the first $600 of the ticket so I got the cheapest ticket and left as early as possible

In the future I would probably go into my own money to get a more expensive ticket that left later, though. Or I guess I might try to just use my work CC and then see what happens, but that seems kind of like a dick move to admin lol

I would say it's more of a dick move to have you travel and expect you to pay out of pocket, non-profit or no, but that's just my opinion.

If I had a 5AM my alarm would be set for 230

Wouldn't even bother trying to sleep honestly.
