Before everyone left work for the new years I gave them a pre-signed expense receipt approval with two lines on it labeled TAXI.

(Yes, we use paper expense reports - it looks more like real money to write $$ on paper. Which is why people use Excel to model revenue.

I told my folks that if they were going out they should take a taxi to/from. And please to wear a seat belt in the taxi.

We have also relaxed the absolute receipt policy for taxi’s this evening. If they can’t get a receipt they have been instructed to just drool some booze on the paper or something.

I hope everyone is careful this evening.

Happy new year.
