To be fair they existed long before the Ks and will do so thereafter.....

Ditto....

Oh come to Europe better still and the world of napkins and rings will keep her happy for days......but all this aside..excellent empanadas such as those by LaMorada must still be eaten by hand...if OH doesn't accept that she is insane.

Swedish MIL has instilled similar obsessions in me...use fabric napkins and personalised napkin rings. Wash twice weekly..voila..no trees weeping..etiquette maintained!

You call a guy you know to deliver XXk usd to your house..after you've already eaten your McDonald's and ice-cream washed down with a refreshing Fernando and a couple of Ibuprofen...all home delivered. Gotta love it.

Would you two girls just ever kiss and make up... PS Ajoknoblauch personally gets my vote in any dog fight.

Sweetie that's a compliment. I practically purr "My Viking" to my Swedish husband when I'm in THAT mood...... -_-

The overt 180 degree check by men is obvious as their tongues tend to be hanging out and it's par for the course but when women do it to other women it is sooooooooo uncomfortable..and they don't even stop when you turn and look at them in the eye and say Por Dios....however I have total...

Jeff, if you signed a contract with his company assuming liability for workplace accidents you're theoretically in the clear but if the company is bust you're still the potential next in line for a payout. If not, it's up to him being a nice guy and not taking this anywhere or you could end up...

On the same vein we briefly flirted with an Argentinean concept of Translated in Argentina, led by the companies already existing here but going nowhere fast when we set up shop in 2003. Needless to say we hastily retreated as we realized the quality implications of associating with mom & pop...

One horrible company day out 4 years ago at the place near Ezeiza....smelly suits, old facilities...just painful...have wiped the name from memory sorry. Sure there must be something more modern these days.

100% match to that!

Happy Translator's Day to all esteemed translation colleagues around the world. Like Frenchie I work way too many hours and translate for fun in my spare time apart from running our company and raising a family. Happy Day all! :D

We used to give our employees their birthday off as a bonus (an old IBM standard I loved) but as CFK starting creating extra public holidays (because the sun rose and set ) we had to give it up as none of our clients understood so much random absences, closures for puentes etc. Annual vacations...

I moved to and from Argentina with Transpack and couldn't speak highly enough of them for their professionalism. Our contact was Carlos - sorry that's all I can remember as its was 2 years ago we left - http://www.transpack.com.ar/

Sorry to say this happened to my cleaner who owns her apt in Congresso. It all got v ugly as the building consortium of owners agreed to hire a gasista to do all the work on all appts but my cleaner felt it was rip off prices and her husband could do it cheaper..in the end they were without gas...

I have found team work most challenging in the 30+age group, especially if they've worked in Argentine companies. They espouse "knowledge is power" and hang onto it like grim death as opposed to espousing team success and advancement through capability not knowledge. Have to stress I've been...

Our first office (10 yrs ago) was right where you mention in Brasil but none of our staff would leave after 8pm without a radio taxi called to the office door. I honestly think it wouldn't be my choice of location for a holiday or for life unless you're under lockdown. It could be a perfectly...

Syngirl it's worth noting that into EN translations with native EN speakers pay at least 100% more than into ES so any language into EN as a degree will serve you a hell of a lot better than ES. I myself am a qualified Arabic - English interpreter and translator...believe me, rarity plus a...
