Do they not need to reimburse meals by law if travelling on business, or is it only hotels. Not sure.
What if the receipt doesn't specify what was in the food? Or what if you go to a buffet restaurant? Do you have to prove you only ate the salad? Is it only meat products not allowed? What about fish? What about dairy? So many variables and a lot of admin and faff for their accounts department.If you don't have anything nice to say, say it sarcasticallyComment

"However, WeWork’s veggie position attracted some dissenters in the AccountingWEB community. Ian McTernan criticised the policy as “stupid virtue signalling”, while AccountingWEB member crebourret said, “I bet they reimburse mileage done in SUVs and other powerful engines”."Comment

Euston Station charges me 20p to use the loos, too - but an employer can't charge their staff.Last edited by vwdan; 21 February 2020, 11:32.Comment
