Someone no one had mentioned yet. Bluetooth RGB lights. I always bring a couple 50w RGBW flood lights and a few RGBW light bulbs that can be controlled via Bluetooth without a hub.
Good lighting transforms a place, especially if they have those horrid low CRI white medical white lights.
I asked HR during my onboarding process what their thoughts were on travel, just in general like working internationally during “extended vacations” to make sure there were no tax issues, just hypothetically. She said there was no problem there.
Just told my manager last week I was going to Buenos Aires and he couldn’t have been more exited for me.
There are good companies with good people out there.
Take all this “be super secretive to your employer” advice with a grain of salt. If you feel that they will give you their full backing and support, tell them!
