The art of the expense report

So, I've recently discovered the benefits of reporting on business. For some reason, business people are unable to conduct any sort of business unless it's over food or drink. And of course, the aforementioned meetings invariably involve a squabble at the end over who will pay for it. And it's not, of course, because we're both noble, we both know that as soon as we get back to the office we'll be attaching the receipt from the "working lunch" to an excel sheet and submitting it to the boss to get paid. That's just how it works. And on top of all that, not only did I get P.F. Chang's free for lunch (and leftover's for dinner) and a trip to Starbucks for snack, I get mileage to each place and back, at the princely rate of .35/mile. I tell you, it's a wonder that anything get's accomplished in the business world, because all they do is eat.
Power lunches are where it's at,

The editor in me COULD NOT RESIST shouting at your for making leftovers plural with an APOSTROPHE ESS.
Kealing, you are better than that.
