because they like to monitor what’s charged to the hotel (aka food/movies and stuff) even though they pay for food this is a big mess lol ---

when my company would send me places they would just pay for the hotel on the corporate card then i had to pay for everything and just expense it… it worked out great… tell your company they need to rethink the poilicy, sounds dumb to me ---

I pay for all my travel stuff with my own card to get the rewards. But then you can have issues like this. Guess it could happen with a corporate card too. ---

They failed to mention the were looking for backdoor ways to fire you :kekegay: we just have an expense sheet we have to fill out and they issue a check for stuff like this. But thats probably easiest since we get paid milage when we go or do certian things. ---

My fuckin’ company expects you to loan them money, interest free, when you travel for them. IE I pay, they’ll reimburse IF they approve of the expediture. I learned the hard way and WILL NOT travel for these fuckers anymore. Worked great for em till until they wanted someone to go to China and create the connections. Heh, reap what you sow cheap bastards. They asked me and and it was priceless to say…"uh huh, I see…NO! " ---
