Tax deductible house guests? How very 1980s.

Oh no, not tax deductable - expense accountable.

If in doubt, stick it on your gold form* and see if it gets signed off.

*one's expenses are still referred to as one's gold form here, even though it's been electrical for a decade. We don't like change and innovation, especially at the operational level.

Morning all. Brutalised twice last night: Richmond and then a swimming pool. Z2 today.
All is good, other than some sod inviting February back for some sort of comeback tour.

Having worked for BT I could probably knock out a novel on 'expenses fiddles'. Some of the folk were utter genuises at it, indeed if they'd been half as creative and dilligent at their jobs as their expenses fiddles the company would have been twice as productive.
I suspect only the guys at Leyland in the 70's could hold a candle to them.

Back in my bodyshopping days we used to pass off pretty much any expenses onto the client - including hotel porn channels when they were a thing. Never to the best of my recollection had a 'chargeable to client' expense claim rejected. Presumably the client bill was not itemised...

Morning.
Quite a lot of the business I brought in while consulting was fixed fee, so we could end up with quite a lot of spare money that needed allocating. I once billed the team Christmas party to a client account.

I hasten to add, for the benefit of any spooks checking up on me, that this was a very legitimate use of tax payers' money, and we genuinely did talk about digital regulation (as well as why we lost on Sunday and when and where we'll have the end of season party).
