One of our contractors had just joined us and had a holiday booked. The other party in the project changed the deadline so he had to attend some calls from Spain.

We ripped him about coming to business meetings in speedos (He is a retired Grandfather Welshman who built a pub in his garden and a good laugh) .

He seemed to enjoy the arrangement.

You know you only work half the time you are awake.

Then you could just stay in the office and save some money which you could then invest in Bitcoin...

There's the remote working from Barbados:

Wasn't there some deal in Vegas too? I think that may have been more around hotel discounts than a visa offering though.
