    LOL, probably not scuba. The chocolate river does not seem inviting...I think I'm more scared to scuba in there than around sharks while spearfishing. I'm pretty sure he meant diverse

    Policia de Ciudad ?

    No, it blames the labor unions for the problem with enforcing standards and accountability in Argentina. They have the money and resources and essentially lobby to have created the labor laws. Poor people (assuming you mean people without resources or money) don’t have the power here (or...

    Policia de Ciudad ?

    It’s difficult to enforce standards and accountability for any profession when the labor laws make terminating an employee expensive or complicated to near impossible.

    Venezuela 101

    Actually, we agree on that aspect...I used the plural form of the word leader (meaning more than one), and they don’t always come in the form of a president. They have more power over influence than just one figurehead.

    Venezuela 101

    That middle sentence is based on the assumption that people make choices solely based on what we care about. Decision-making appears to be a lot more primitive and subconscious than that. Not only that, the perceived choices are typically manufactured through propaganda generated by those with...

    The book “Nudge” gives a good socio-economic perspective on how change happens. In my opinion, any book that sparks question is a good read, especially in a time where information is so readily available on such a large and indiscriminate scale.

    Teaching English in Buenos Aires

    Teach English remotely via skype/hangouts/etc. You will earn in the business' associated currency(ies), and you can work from anywhere with internet. I second both mmoon's and TruchoTango's comments, having had many friends and acquaintances over the past 5 years who have attempted this. None of...

    Am I just unlucky?

    It happens quite frequently, but I’ve only seen a couple of cases (one outside a bank...likely an inside helper). I hesitate to use this analogy, but f@*k it... You see one roach, there are likely to be many more that you don’t see...keep the goodies out of sight. You see a few, there’s a...
