Work Sending Me To Scotland

[Blexrude]

This is a maybe at the moment. A 50/50 chance of Scotland or Canada depending on what the client wants. I've never been to either. I will have 3 days of time all to myself.

If I end up in Scotland...


Must-See Destinations: Is Edinburgh a must? Any hidden gems in the Highlands or elsewhere?

Transportation: Should I rely on public transport or rent a car? How challenging is driving there?

Accommodation: Any recommendations for budget-friendly options in Edinburgh and the Highlands?

Food: What traditional Scottish dishes should I try? Is haggis worth it?

Local Culture: Any etiquette tips I should know before visiting?

Activities: What can't-miss experiences do you recommend? I've heard whisky tours and hiking are popular.

Thanks in advance for your insights! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!


And if you never've been there, just wish me safe travels.

[Mr. Feeny]

Whoa Canada and Scotland are completly different places. I wonder where you'll go.

[Blexrude]

Yeah and I've never been on a business trip before.

[Mr. Feeny]

What kind of work will you do while you travel/

[Blexrude]

Mostly just selling online and testing

[Sweet Dreams Are Made of These]

Make them pay for first class.

[Blexrude]

I think I get "business class" but I don't know what that is.

Wow. When's the last time you were on a plane?

[Blexrude]

It's been many years!

[Black Eyed Peas]

Never been to either, but they both sound fun.

I've only experienced it on United Airlines so far. It's dreamy. Seats have an electric foot rest and recline to fully flat. Linens, pillows, sleeping mask, and some swag provided. Meals ordered from a small menu. Proper foldout table about 3x bigger than normal. Big TV. Outlets for charging stuff. Wi-Fi isn't free but the flat rate is reasonable unless you prefer to just sleep or watch movies the whole time. Leg room still limited on the sides, but can stretch out all the way without meeting anyone.

It's really the only way to enjoy a flight longer than 3 or 4 hours.

Come to Canada!

I think you'd enjoy Canada if you don't want too much of a change from American living. But if you want the experience of seeing another country, you'd love Scotland.

[God is Love]

Scotland or Canada, such extremes. Such a weird client. Lol. I hope you have fun wherever you go.

[Eric Matthews]

Both sound great. If you get to go, I hope you have fun.
