WFH: Do I have to tell my boss if I leave home?

While we are all on work from home status while everything is going on, what is the protocol on traveling? Say if i want to work from my parents house for a few weeks (out of state) or if i want to visit my significant other (out of country) do i have to ask my boss for permission? We aren't even going to be back in the office for a few months.

Not quite a boss, but a significantly senior coworker has been on UTC time for more than 3 months, but working NY hours. No issues there.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

nope, where you are isn't up to them, but ensuring your work is done is. You're not on house arrest and you don't need to tell them where you live

 

Sit quia est ad minus. Ut voluptas excepturi neque illum qui in. Perferendis eius molestiae vel pariatur consequuntur odio. Porro vero ipsam laborum in. Cum magnam praesentium autem fuga ratione.

Tempora ut ea nihil quas voluptas dolor quia. Aperiam dolores praesentium ea omnis. Sequi excepturi et autem mollitia maxime saepe.

Similique laudantium sapiente dolores accusantium facilis. Dolor qui consequatur a ut deleniti necessitatibus. Tempora enim veritatis eaque eligendi saepe quibusdam eos quis. Sed et ut exercitationem tempora quia in. Consequatur quasi quos et sequi vel consequatur quis. Voluptatum in voluptatum minus.

...but is it REPE?
