I'm not sure if it will be more trouble than it is worth, but my partner got invited to a medical conference in Chicago and doesn't want to go. We contacted them and I am able to go in his place.
The deal is they pay for airfare, ground transportation, hotel and meals. PLUS, they pay me $1,500 for attending.
So I'll be leaving a week from Monday and coming home on Tuesday. Like I said, it is a bit of a hassle, but for $1,500 I'll suffer.
What I'm really hoping is that this company does programs like this regularly and this will get me on their list for future programs. I wouldn't mind doing that a couple of times each year.
I'm going to Chicago...for the day

I happen to already use a fair amount of the drug the program is focusing on so I don't really need any convincing and don't expect this program to change my use of the drug.

but if you get a few minutes, go admire the lights on the Wrigley and Tribune buildings on Wacker and Michigan Ave at night, walking over the river.
It's soooooo pretty there.
