Does anyone feel guilty at times about lying? I work from my own laptop doing project work and admin. No company or org laptops. They haven’t necessarily asked where I am, they simply assume I am in the region. I don’t correct them and generally just avoid the topic like local restaurants or news.

I know they would axe me immediately if they found out. The culture is very excessive lovey dovey (initially anyways - we are all a family here type stuff) but overtime I see the red flags. So I am not saying much. Keeping my head idown and working. Though I do feel guilty about this disguise and all. Anyone too?

I just got approval from my boss and they were cool with it. I think the stress of worrying about getting canned would be too much for me. I feel like I would have given it away since it’s a smaller company.

If you’re using your own computer, I don’t see the issue of your work is getting done.

Maybe if you’re back in your home country anytime soon break the news that you’d like to work out the country?

Or just keep flying under the radar
