Still waiting for McK or Bain guys to come in and post something like - trip to Patagonia or Antarctica. Because they would have seen the world by now. Travel snobs. 😛

Argentina!!!! Ultra cheap with the floating blue dollar for 2020. For example, dinner in ultra fancy place for two can cost 20 dollars. Hotel rooms for less than 100 in top quality suites and elite members are not normal in Argentina so you would get all the perks at any time. Besides the wonderful European style of Buenos Aires, the wines in Mendoza, the new 7th wonder of Cataratas of Iguazú waterfalls, the unique Perito Moreno moving Glaciar in Calafate, the possibility of an Antarctic trip from Ushuaia and more and more!!! Argentina is the perfect destination for 2020.

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?
