KPMG doesn’t give you mobile hotspots? I had to drive through rural alabama and Mississippi while working in the backseat and was surprised at how well my hotspot held up

Not entirely sure but i think you can buy a separate hotspot from your wireless carrier. PwC pays for our phone bill and includes an unlimited mobile hotspot in there.

Yes. That's what I had to do for the remainder f my trip. Airbnb wifi works pretty well. I'm trying to see if I could get a van and travel across the country with high speed hotspot 😅 The idea is that I work during the day and drive to another destination on the weekends.

I'm a light sleeper who cares too much about the people around me, but I've got a flight to London next Friday from 7pm NYC time to 7am UK time, and I'd really like to master sleeping on a plane just this once and not be in jet lag hell for the entire day after I land. I'll be in premium economy in an aisle seat. I usually take melatonin before bed and sleep on my side. Does anyone have suggestions for an OTC sleeping pill or pillow that actually works, or other advice for sleeping on a plane?

I'm looking for advice from those who have freelanced remotely with an international agency.

I'm based in NYC and have had firms in Canada and England reach out about projects. The agencies have offices in the US but I would be working w/ their international teams (servicing US based clients). I've asked for my standard rate in USD converted to their currency.

Any advice on the best way to get paid? Have you asked to get paid by the US office instead? Any watch-outs for tax season?

TIA!

It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!
