Woo, Brenda!
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
YAY Brenda!
The only reason I have my own work credit card here is that I am the only librarian here. SF has to share one, and sometimes they borrow mine when theirs isn't working.

Yay Brenda!!
Not having a company card is really awkward for anyone who has financial issues. If you can't afford to charge on your own card and wait for reimbursement, or you only have a debit card??

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Especially if it's a matter of book the travel in advance, have to pay the credit card bill before you even travel, and then wait a couple of weeks to be reimbursed after submitting the expense report. Sucks mightily.

Our wings are not tired
My two senior full time employees have business credit cards
If I can't trust them with the credit card, I have no idea how I could trust them to handle our clients.

Timelies all!
Yay Brenda!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that's the thing. Now, in our department, one senior person has said he'll put stuff $100+ on his card, but STILL. I hate asking anyone to front anything.

I just got back from a trip to NYC and I had to book the hotel (financial district, people, and they require you to pay up front) AND airfare 6 or 8 weeks before the trip. So I have carried $1200 for work for 2 months. I mean, we're rich, and I still am bothered by it. I was terrified something would happen and I wouldn't be able to go on the trip ad work would be like "oh well!" (because they totally would.)

That's ridiculous!! At least I'm pretty sure our airfare is charged centrally.

If I didn't have a company travel card, I wouldn't be able to do any of my business trips.
