They might work for your family, they don't for mine. Anyway, thank you everyone else for actual, legitimate suggestions. The problem is solved for now, I'll keep them in mind for next time.

Thanks Henry, they're fully booked though.

Hey, Does anyone know of a nice, safe, family friendly motel or hotel in the city? I'm looking for something that is not too expensive (around 500 a night or less maybe, so definitely nothing 5 star I'm assuming). We haven't had any power since yesterday and it looks like we won't get it back...

Can anyone recommend a good, trustworthy workshop for Ford? An acquaintance of mine owns a Ford Focus (2011, Ghia if that matters) that keeps giving him the "Direccion Asistida Averiada" error every time he starts the car (only happens when the engine is still cold). This error usually goes...

I think whether you clean apartments or are an engineer, you are doing honest work and at the end of the day that's what matters. Obviously, the economy would have to be screwed up, in my opinion, if an engineer and a cleaner are paid the same seeing how different their qualifications are. As...

Its times like these that I'm so grateful for the ignore function. To the people who are actually providing useful information, thanks!

Huh? What in the world are you talking about? You mean the PM you sent met about why your treatment of Michael Smith, "the lazy, entitled white person" who is just plain "racist" was justified? I don't know if you understand how PMs work but you initiated the PM, I respectfully sent you a reply...

Only if you "check your privilege" and apologize to the animals.

I think the government simply can't afford the luxuries. Argentina is broke and I see it as a positive that instead of going "you need to tighten your belt while we throw ourselves parties" to the populace Macri and his admin are taking steps, visible to the public, to cut cost. Whether they're...

Zolvers only facilitates contact between the person wanting to hire a cleaner and the cleaner. They don't do anything legally for you other than check that the cleaner has the legal right to work in Argentina (when they assign a cleaner to you, they send you photos of their DNI, front and back)...

I might have misread this but you didn't just try to equate slavery of black human beings to animals in a zoo...did you?

I'd wait at least 6 months before making that decision. I'd especially wait for the Congress to come back and see how that plays out.

Huh? WTF does that have to do with anything? Agree with the rest of your comment though.

True. I know plenty of Argentines with bank accounts denominated in USD. A lot of people don't trust bank accounts in USD here though because they fear the banks or the government will steal it.

Eh...what exactly do you mean by "that sort of thing"? I am "fluent in" WordPress and can work with it with my eyes closed. Web design, I'm not a designer but it depends on what your requirements are. I am still working on "that sort of thing" though but I'm sure I could master it ;) . Send me...

Heh, nitpicker. Me neither. Just think that US or UK politics don't have much to do with expat life here in Argentina. From what I've seen in the past, the admin might just move this thread to World Politics soon anyway. You're free to start your threads wherever you want obviously (and the...

No offense to you Redbeanz but this thread belongs in the World Politics section.

To be fair he was accused of being a Nigerian so him wanting to show that he's an American (using his birth certificate or passport) and not a Nigerian scammer makes sense. I mean, honestly, if he were a Nigerian, because of the 419 scams, even if his situation were totally messed up for real no...

Thanks for posting this. Regardless of what Bajo_cero2's political stance is (I completely disagree with him on his politics most, if not all, of the time), he definitely is a capable lawyer and good at what he does.

Lol. Yeah that's the advice my wife's family (they're all Argentines) gave me when we moved here. It's worked awesomely so far.
