At my Expense

Expense reports can be the bane of any admin.  Crumple, coffee-stained receipts in foreign currency.  Tips and mileage.  Meals where clients are entertained.

Admin Gal doesn't mind processing the reports, she minds having to mine the receipts from the people she supports.  Or, the straggling receipts, 'Oh, I forgot to give this one to you.' The minute after you submit the report for processing.  Worse are the unidentifiable expenses in the expense report system, that are over the limit for not having a receipt and the individual just says, 'Process it anyway.'

Admin Gal's reply to all this?  If you don't produce what I need, the Auditor will get you!


Auditors make very effective bogeymen.
