I have to find three months of receipts today. We have corporate cards but if we havenāt submitted the expenses it comes from our personal bank accounts. Itās a fucking nightmare.
A much worse system than the old Gold circle. Have a few points built up and handy for skipping queues at bag drop or check in but lounges are a joke. May just use BA for transatlantic in Q1 2018 although already have one AL flight booked.
Similar system. Forces you to do it quickly because if you donāt thereāll be a gaping hole in your bank account in a week or two.
Lads ye are living in the past FFS. Expsensify you just take a pic of the receipt when you get it, or the following morning or whatever and you can fuck the receipt away then.

Same as Concur. Then add it into the app. Even whatever system they are using surely then can just take a photo of the receipt rather than trying to keep receipts for 3 months? Deary me.
Proper order

Receipts lol. Travel & subsistence is the way to go
These lads work in the real world, where the money doesnāt come from the magic money tree.

The lounges are less pleasant than sitting in a coffee franchise these days, with Cork being an honorable exception. I often donāt bother any more unless Iāve ages to kill.

Manchester Terminal 3 is a fairly grim spot. 10 oāclock in the morning and the pride of England mugging pints to beat the band. Men and women. Iād say some of the flights were a delight to be on.
It was utterly grim at 6am yesterday.
The business lounge was no better. Full of grim faced pensioners stuffing their faces with whatever was on offer. I didnāt even go in. Just headed back downstairs.
If you travel through t3again, go through the main bar/cafe place and turn left. Thereās a huge stretch of departure gates and usually no one there.
I canāt figure whoās travelling these days. I had to get out of the cab and walk from the roundabout at six in the morning on a nondescript Monday. You couldnāt even get onto the exit ramp for t1. Manchester is rough as fuck. The business types are all utter wankers also.

Getting an early flight from Geneva to Heathrow then onto Dublin for a 2pm meeting. Early to bed tonight
Concur is a game changer. Itās changed my life in ways I never thought possible.
Found out recently our personal alcohol allowances have been drastically reduced although client entertainment has been untouched. To get around this on the continent, you will find some restaurants offer a Prix Fixe menu that can include various drinks but just appears as a one line item on your receipt.

I had to go through Heathrow last week on the way back from brux. Cunt of a place
Terminal 2 is wonderful compared to some shithole like Gatwick or Stanstead
Terminal 5 is nice, but sweet Lord itās always seeming to be busy, and passport control is dreadful.
Even the hygiene aspect of it like, receipts sitting in lads pockets after they finger banging Mary Jane in some seedy back street European whore house.
