Entertainment?

ConocoPhillips gives 35.00 a day for entertainment... No cap on meals...

It must be all about who you know

What I'm gathering from all of this is this. Corporate gigs rock if you know your employer and know you get along. I do some contract flying on the side. One guy wants me to take him and his wife vacationing. He told me to bring my wife. Perdiem - $850.00 per night. I drop them off and don't see them again until we leave.

I don't expect to always be treated like this. My thaught is to treat it like a perk-free regional job and count the blessings one by one.

G100- you're right about milan yuck. I did find some nice bars at Lanzo Stop which was cool. But walking from the hilton ment you got to watch people shooting up at the train station. I really enjoyed how the cops walked around in groups from coffee house to coffee house. It was a long month of waiting.

In a previous life before G200 puts it my low life job, everything was expensable. The owner and his family asked me to go out to dinner every once and a while but I think this was more to make sure I was doing okay. Meals, hotel and internet plus taxi's or a rental car is all i ever really expensed. I don't play golf but i do a lot of sightseeing. Plus how do you expense a lapdance?

Besides internet in europe was 29 bucks a day plus it was megabyte limited. I had to checkflightinfo. you know that was expensed.

Plus how do you expense a lapdance?

Got to a very cheap resturaunt. Buy it yourself.

Go to stirp club. Pay cash for a "bottle of champaine" (Europe only)
Negotiate tranaction. Pay cash.

Turn in cash receipt for dinner in the amount you feel will get by the CFO. Sleep well that night!

I go deer and bird hunting with my boss. Refused to go once and got spoken to. He does not like to hunt alone. Other than that, different hotels and restaurants. We do get a rental car to go where we want. Company expense handles it. Company credit cards are issued and we do turn in an expense report. Not a bad life. Have a good evening everyone.

My boss called me today (I'm on a trip) and told me to have a day at the spa tomorrow on the company. So, after skiing, I'm going to get a massage.

This is the first time I've had a perk like this, and I suspect it will be the last time as well.

 

[mobie]

How did you talk your boss into giving you a massage?

 

[English]

Hmmm, maybe I should have clarified that...

I'm putting a day at the spa on the company credit card.

Better?

 

[mobie]

Entertainment on corporate trips? I've gone on some pretty decent all expense paid hunting and fishing trips over the years. Company paid sightseeing side trips in various parts of Europe, South America and Asia. Now, I've got cart blanche to take my wife on any trip that we have an empty seat.
