How do I quarantine 14 days in Buenos Aires and eat/get supplies?

[Silvie]

I haven't even been speaking to my part-time encargado, since he has refused to wear a mask for the first 7 months. So I wouldn't expect much from him either.

We gave our doorman a bunch of masks, if you're earning like a doorman you probably don't have a lot left over at the end of the month for stuff like that.

In my building visits are restricted to relatives and limited others a day

i live in 2 buildings con-currently. one super elite and super poor. so in the super lite, a tramite has to be initiated with admin describing full details of the person, why he/she is coming, how is he/she related ; how many hours will stay.. and then the admin will ponder it over a few days and allow or may not allow the visit of 4 hours once a week. And then that quota for that week, is exhausted.

In my poor building ( no portero), which is the wild wild west, anyone can come and go.

Your place in the poor building would be sort of a "garconniere" ?

If I were you I will use that negative PCR -- when you arrive in the building -- them the portero IF HE/SHE asks -- that you have a negative PCR and show it to them. And tell them the rules say no quarantine if you have a negative PCR. That should be enough.

Good tips make good friends.

Since this started, I've began to tip twice what I used to.
Being VERY generous has payed back generously.

Exactly my experience with porteros.

The experience of a good tip and the expectation of yet another work miracles.

 

[Iznogud]

In my building, the stupid is strong.
And none of the Porteros will get in the way, definitely not in their interest.

Ah I am staying an very fancy building in Palermo, and it is obvious I am coming from the airport because I will have a huge suitcase and be arriving at 2AM.

Can I tip in USD?

No way, CABA porteros accept no other currency but Venezuelan bolivar
