I would push further because the difference is essential and massive. Human legal systems do not have 'wiggle room'. They are living, breathing bodies open to interpretation and change. In fact, radical change and radical interpre

This has been a long and varied set of threads. All interesting. Has anyone actually reached out to google yet to help Doreen? If you have, can you just let us know that you have?

Its a legal case. Receipts not only help, they are required. AGs prefer cases they know they'll win.

Corporate spend also occurs at rate unavailable to the end user. The only reason you tell someone you stayed at the Ritz is because you haven't stayed there often.

This is how per diem used to work. Amazingly corporations decided budgeting it out would save them money. Even a 500/night hotel cap is better than the difference going in the employees pocket from the corporation vantage point. Why ar

You assume your fictional business is doing poorly. I assume my fictional business is killing it and so yes I would stay at the Ritz with my peerset that I might see at breakfast, or the evening happy hour, or in SF especially, walking to a

oh my. In a world of continously created saas pursuing bits of walletshare and department budgets endlessly I would say there is a small % of tools that are specialized and uniquely required. There's also a TON of tools that are pref

This is the agile suggestion. A previous commenter had it right imho. Its not that the approach isn't working, its that it has been co-opted by management and requires separation to actually succeed. Another note would be that agile it

I hope there's a move like we've seen in nursing: - people get pushed - people quit - start consulting - get hired at a proper wage

And BAH is happy to accept it in perpetuity! The site is great. This is still another example of sending taxpayer dollars to private organizations because public offices aren't well funded enough to execute these things on their own.

Its more pernicious imho. "Let us pay for this service by serving you ads which undermine your comprehension of what you actually need and cause you to constantly have an investigative part of your mind on, or mindlessly consume."

Comments seem divided on whether someone 'in' the industry is the only person that can understand the industry and whether being in it means having a vested interest. For those of us who feel like "well duh obviously, and he
