I had an international trip planned in April that I postponed, but I still wanna take it this summer. Do you think it’s a bad look to travel even when we’re WFH? With the way they’re talking, we won’t we back in the office until end of summer.

Do you plan to spend two weeks quarantining over in the country you're going to? Pretty much no country will allow visitors without a mandatory quarantine currently. And then you have to remember, when you come back home you'll have to quarantine for another two weeks.

The country has little to no Covid cases. I wouldn’t have a problem vacationing locally but I’m meeting up with my boyfriend and we only get to see each other once a year. I have no issue quarantining when I get back.

Take the time off. We’re not going back to the office for 6+ months.

I don’t think WFH has any bearing on how vacation looks. I know plenty of people taking vacay in their backyard.

I think the bigger issue is what EA1 said above, why travel when you have to quarantine there, and then do it again here? Plus I’d really hate to spend all that money traveling somewhere, just to find every museum, bar, and restaurant still closed. Seems like a waste of a vacation 🤷🏼‍♂️

I have a boss from hell. She’s the GM of my hotel and she is a mean girl that never grew out of highschool. She loves gossip. She will trash talk her employees with other employees and once her toxic garbage starts to leak amongst us peons she will send a group text telling us all to stop spreading rumors and to stop being bullies like she isn’t the mean kid with a magnifying glass torturing ants for no reason. I want to stand up but I’ve seen her retaliate on people who have tried to. Help.

Boss has WFH for 9months. I have been WFH for 2-weeks for travel quarantine/state guidelines. She now requires that I go back to the office to “show face” that HR is right alongside the essential employees. I have been more productive from home vs the office. I get the perspective of team unity, but is it wrong to feel there is no reason to risk my health? The company justifies increasing my covid risk (high-risk already) to “show face”, when my job is being fulfilled while WFH. Am I crazy?

Do folks have trusted/valuable resources for researching luxury family travel with young kids? I don’t care the cost, I want to know what is most convenient and nice for my family. Feel like generally most resources are geared to either a) families on a budget (I don’t care which hotel is best bang for buck w/mid breakfast) or b) couples / adults only travelers. Do folks just stick to true five star hotel concierges for help? Do folks just book luxury tours like A&K? How do folks research?
