Phillipines bound!
It's been a journey so far for me this year and just wanted to share a win. My flight got cancelled going back to the US on Nov 4th from the Philippines due to Typhoon Tino. I was supposed to be back for work that week. I spoke to my manager about working remotely using a VPN to connect to our servers and she agreed to give it a shot. Fast forward to now, I am back in the US. I asked my manager if I can work remotely from the Philippines and she agreed to it finally! My one way ticket back is on 12/8! Yee!!

Congrats Davin! Did you have to figure out any other details with your company like paying US taxes or being outside for an extended period or were they fine with it as long as you are using a vpn?

Got our first Community partnership! Keep your home IP is giving our members 10% off with the code RF10%. @Mohammed Akif I know you were looking at picking one up. I am going to push for 15-20% later on in the middle of the year, but for now this was the best I could negotiate. Please comment any services you are finding useful on either finding a remote role or working remote and I can approach them with a community discount as well. As the Remote Freedom grows we can start having more pull in these types of services. Strength in numbers

Should I just mention to them I’m part of remote freedom community in an email or do I need to show them anything else for it?

I placed my order, you just have to put "RF10%" during checkout

Hey everyone! 👋 For our next co-working session, we’ll be adding a little boost to help you apply faster and stay focused. We'd love to know, what kind of remote role are you most interested in? We’ll use your answers to prepare a Google Sheet with job listings that match your preferred roles, so during the co-working call, you can apply right away instead of waiting for the link. 🙌 Drop your role in the comments (e.g., Sales Entry Level, Project Management, Customer Support, etc.), and we’ll source job openings for you! Let’s make this co-working session productive and exciting! See you, everyone, for our co-working call! 💪

They gave me a 5% discount and I mentioned that but they didn’t pull it up on the spot. And I emailed them again yesterday to ask about that and something else and they gave me the 5% thing again but they didn’t acknowledge that it was our community discount so I just wanted to double check lol
VPN Close Call at Work
Hey Everyone, thought I would share this to demonstrate a lot of these policies are don't ask don't tell. I started using my VPN, since I had forgot one day and I haven't had an issue in over 6 months. However, today a new security team must be checking logs closer. They were able to see I was from an outside IP. My manger knows I am overseas, but the new security team didn't, and it is always best to not draw attention to yourself. They honestly don't care, but triggering alerts makes more work for them, and might put them in a tough position if higher ups decide to be more strict. Close call.. Definitely using my VPN from now on.
VPN Close Call at Work

I’m going to watch the mentor call when I get back from vacation. The way I see it right now is i have 2 options. I either try the vpn route with my current job and hope it goes right (maybe start by going to places not too far from the US). My second option is really going in on the job hunt for remote software engineer roles. I think I’m already at a point where I’m getting kind of tired with my job so I feel like I might as well try the vpn option. And then as I’m doing I’m that I can keep trying to look for other remote work so if I find a good opportunity I can be remote without having to hide my ip. What do you guys think?

@Raul Torres yea I’m just not 100% confident in it since I’m not really sure if there’s ways for that to be tracked or caught. Also I think with my current job I connect to a vpn already for some of the work we do. But looking into it i think I can connect to 2 vpns at a time. I think when I get back from vacation im just going to order it and begin testing it out and doing both options kinda like you said. Thanks for the feedback!
