He probably expensed all 10 gin and tonics we had in Cali!

No, that went on the room bill.

Here's the thing with expense accounts: they are a tool. One should only use tools for their intended purposes as that will prevent one from possible injury. Networking meeting? Pretty reasonable. Schmoozing someone for a specific purpose to do with my organization? Pretty reasonable.

Taking friends out drinking and get that noticed by the auditors or your finance committee? I'd much rather pick up the entire tab than risk my career or my good name for a few hundred bucks.

how about a piece of paper with an egg sized hole in the middle?

If the exec at the pass sees any chive on the steak itself outside the egg, he sends the plate back.

Change of career? WTF?

Better still, keep an old crate at your station and place the quail eggs in there to sprinkle.

I don't understand. As Overlord, won't the auditors or finance committee members tremble in fear after realizing who they're auditing ??

Then again, if you're a baller you don't even look at the bill but use it to light your cigar as you slide over the card or preferably an uncounted but large wad of cash.

Yeah, it's CEOs that think they're Overlord that end up suddenly without a job. I'm just a medium sized fish, in a medium sized pond and know my place in the school. If I keep things on the up and up I'll continue to have a nice happy little life and that's the plan.

Dinner last night was a new sausage recipe/type: Merquez. Used lamb (traditional meat) to make it and it was very good.

This reminds me of the scene in Scarface where Frank says, "Hey, Tony. Remember when I told you when you first started working for me, the guys that last in this business, are the guys who fly straight. Low-key, quiet. But the guys who want it all, chicas, champagne, flash... they don't last. " Oh and I love merguez !
