[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Respectfully, can you understand your employers motivation in wanting to attend in person v on Zoom?  Do you realize that relationships are easier to start and cultivate in person rather than virtually?[/quote]

I love how people will rationalize ANY DAMN THING, so long as it’s something [i]they[/i] enjoy.

[i]“do you realize that relationships are easier to start and cultivate in person rather than virtually[/i]?”

Sure do!

Especially when those relationships are cultivated in places that are attractive travel destinations with fine lodging, amenities and cuisine! So what if the conference is for reducing CO2 emissions but requires no less than 100 airline flights from all over the world to get everyone there - it’s worth it because [i]We’Re SaViNg TeH pLaNeT!!!! [/i]

Ever notice how no one wants to hold a conference on the north slope of Prudhoe Bay Alaska or lower Mongolia or the Atacama Desert? Nah. All the locations seem to all have in common being beautiful, sought after destinations. Crazy, right?!?!
