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.
Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

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.
Conversation with my son this evening included debating different euphemisms for penis and vagina, ranking them, and figuring matching terms.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Yeah, my 1-day trip to Chicago for work required the me to front the AMA $1,000 on my credit card. The thing is, the AMA reserved all the editors' rooms at the Kimpton, so they could have just put it on the corporate account. But when we checked in, we had to give the Kimpton our credit card. WTF, man.
