Can you spare a fellah some change?

I’m assuming you’re talking about a failure on the part of your company to reimburse you in a timely fashion for travel-related expenses.

If this becomes a habit, I would suggest you do what I did with my former employer. I simply refused to incur any expenses on their behalf. One day, after getting an expense check two months late, I simply sent an e-mail to my supervisor and to the comptroller of the company. Something to the effect of the following…

Of course, this caused quite a stir, but I didn’t give a crap because I was ready to quit. I did, however, take one more trip before departing and airline tickets, hotel and meals were all pre-paid for that one.
