    Doh! Lost my phone in a taxi ...now looking to buy used or rent

Then I called Radio Taxi Porteño describing the time/place of ride & the phone, and gave them a number where I could pick up a message in case it was turned in. And I plan to give them another call in...

    Doh! Lost my phone in a taxi ...now looking to buy used or rent

    Hi BAexpats, I just absent-mindedly left my cellphone in a taxi cab, and am unlikely to get it back as it was just a random black & yellow cab I hailed on the street (I can’t even remember which company it was).

Personally, just trying to make my way back to Buenos Aires, but am definitely sympathetic to the tight fiscal position that...

    Question about Apr 30 & May 1 striking...

    I recognize that these strikes aren't about a particular labor contract, but rather a wider protest against the government's economic policies.

    Question about Apr 30 & May 1 striking...

    I've read thru the answers in the other strike-related thread: https://baexpats.org/threads/international-flights-on-may-1st.41115 ...and I had a follow-up question: based on past negotiating/striking practices, is it likely that this is a 2-day strike (Apr 30 & May 1) and then back to work /...

    Here's a short YouTube video (8 mins): Merchants of Doubt: What Climate Deniers Learned from Big Tobacco ...about the full-length movie, Merchants of Doubt. You can find the whole movie on YouTube, among other places. Very well-made, and worth watching. The point of the movie is that, in all...
