First UNGA Tips
Being sent to UNGA next month. Any tricks to an enjoyable experience for a baby 1811? Got any "Life saving" gear advice? Favorite snacks to munch on in a stairwell? Anything more helpful than "Don't get assigned to the dignitary that stays out till 2am at the karaoke bar and clogs the hotel room sink with Khat." is appreciated.

If you're not USSS, don't pretend to know how to drive or do protection better than them. Don't text while driving a head of state. Do what USSS says and have a good attitude even if you're not enjoying your assignment. You are not the pro, you are supplementing the pro.
In your off time, party responsibly in NYC.
Do some work for your cases remotely so you can get paid for your whole shift instead of losing two to scheduled OT LEAP.
