    Having so much money you can dictate terms to world governments is quite popular these days.

      This, I remember that some 20 years ago when going to the Antarctica for a PhD seemed like a good idea, I found a job where they were looking for a plumber. The pay was insane at that time

      This is the answer, if you’re not in academia you likely need to be in logistics, maintenance, or be a doctor/nurse.

    You probably thought of snowmobile and bolt cutters already

      That’s the easy part, crossing the sea from Tierra del Fuego to Antártica is where it gets hairy

    I mean, “it’s a shapeshifting alien that wants to kill us” would be pretty down on my list and “these Norgs have lost their mind” would be quite high there

    Too bad we were ignorant enough not too have a Norwegian translator in our ranks, though the next civilised settlement is fully Norwegian. I don’t need to know Norwegian though to tell this guy is disrespecting us!

  I would die to get on an Antarctic research station. Too bad they probably don’t need computer scientists.

  I’d love to work in Antarctica. I’d never pass the psych evaluation, though. Would be just my luck I’d have one of my major depression episodes and decide it’s a good idea to go freeze to death in the frozen desert. Given how great my last few days have been, it honestly doesn’t sound like a terrible idea now.
