    Want to expat! Hungry for knowledge

    By the way, I think it is funny that you are following the advice of other people to open up a US bank account to have access to your money while down here. Seems to go against the advice of you sources.

    Want to expat! Hungry for knowledge

    Oh the things fear can do to people. FEMA is the Federal Emergency Management Agency, even your sources confirm that. It is responsible for responding to natural & man made disasters. They are NOT a police state. They are NOT another government. They are exactly what they say they are, a...

    Want to expat! Hungry for knowledge

    I really think you ought to try not to use loaded phrases like "concentration camps" because it just alienates so many people and discredits any argument you may have. And it's hard to take you serious when you are rattling of all this bs, sorry.

    Discrimination at Campeonato Metropolitano de Tango

    Thanks for that information, what I asked was nothing against you. I believe it is pertinent to this debate. You would not allow someone to become Miss Argentina who just moved to the country, would you? I think this country is great because it has laws that are so non-discriminative. But I...

    Tren de la Costa

    Not physically possible to connect the two lines, and doesn't really make that much sense. The FFCC Mitre is Argentine Broad Gauge (~1.67 m) while the Tren de la Costa was remodeled in International Standard Gauge (~1.435 m). The Tren de la Costa mirrors pretty much the Tigre line, and never...

    Just assaulted I feel not good at all

    It is also true that if you speak with that much of a cheto accent in some neighbourhoods you will be more of a target.

    Now I feel like a local - our first lawsuit ;)

    Steve, come on, just read my post! Did not accuse her of that.

    Now I feel like a local - our first lawsuit ;)

    Unnecessary Steve. Obviously did not read anything I just wrote. Is an employer not guilty if he/she does not pay his/her employees? Is an employer not guilty if he/she sexually harasses his/her employees? Is an employer not guilty if he/she fires an employee for taking a sick day? for asking...

    Now I feel like a local - our first lawsuit ;)

    And I don't agree with Pablo, it is rather easy to believe you were sued for nothing. But just because this happens and we hear about it does not make strong labor laws valid. There must be 10X as many cases where the employer is really guilty of something.

    Now I feel like a local - our first lawsuit ;)

    Most labor lawyers do not charge their client's up front. I know this for sure since my wife, when she was 17, had to sue a former employer who would not pay up. She was able to go to a labor lawyer, and they got it solved with no cost to her. She only sued for the 5,000 or so pesos that were...

    Chocolate Chips por mayor?

    Our dietetica sells Chocolate Chips por menor and por mayor (I believe they are 1 or 2 kilo boxes). I will go check what they are asking for their por mayor price and also check out the brand, because it isn't Aguila. I am sure that they get there things from Mercado Central though, so you may...

    Leaving San Diego for BA in April!

    Check out the Mind Co. (http://www.themindco.com/). I have heard they don't pay the best, but it would probably be a good stepping of point for someone with your skills, plus they will help you will a DNI/CUIL etc.

    Current DNI Processing Time

    Hello all, I just wanted to know if anyone has received their DNI recently and if so how long it took them to get it once their residency was processed? Is the ReNaPer just in a particularly slow season right now? I suppose they have to worry about passports now too... I applied through the...

    Custom T's?

    estampame.com.ar I think it costs 40 for a shirt and you just go pick it up yourself, and I am sure there are bulk discounts.

    Jane's Addiction... for Movistar clients only?

    Well that was unnecessary. I wasn't arguing with your case, I was commentating on a completely different situation. And claiming that you are being discriminated against because they wouldn't except your card and you were too lazy to walk to an ATM is a pretty weak argument. Plus, your type of...
