Expense Policy?

[Chris]

Just curious,

My recent trip to Banff/Calgary was for our National Sales Conference, pretty much had the green light to expense food/hotel, etc.

However, does this include all of the porno I watched with the Calgary ladies at the hotel?

I only ask because I have to submit my expenses via the company card to our department EA?

Yeah that's it with the ....ladies.....yeah.

Funny you say that... I used to process expense reports and if I saw a hotel-room movie charge that was more expensive than normal, I knew it was a porno and I wouldn't cover it.

Needless to say, the sales guys hated me.

So then,

No to the porn then. Mongo has now been set straight, thanx.

I wouldn't be to worried about it, I've expences cartons of smokes, bottles of booze and a $30(us) lobster with a hand written reciept.

Most of the time they just pay regardless...

If the porn is itemized on the hotel receipt, then no, you probably dont want to expense it. If you can just submit your credit card receipt, then bingo! free porn (and booze).

I think you'll be fine as long as the person who's dealing with it doesn't have a bug up their ass like I did about jetsetting sales jerks expensing anything and everything they could while making 10x what I did.

see let this by a lesson, always buy the person who files your expence account a bottle at the duty free on the way home!!
