Anyone have any suggestions on how to discuss not spending my own money on office expenses? We don't have corporate cards, yet I'm expected to purchase snacks on a constant basis for meetings.

You should be submitting an expense report!!! Or get someone’s Amex! Please don’t eat that cost. Pun intended.

Can you expense to someone on your team with a card?

Please make sure to keep any receipts as well :)

Def expense those. Get the right approvals first to make sure there are no issues with reimbursement, but BDO1 is right....You shouldn’t be eating those charges. Pun also intended. A manager or partner Amex works fine as well. If a leader asked for something, simply get approval to use their card. It helps if you do their expenses.

I’m just curious, was the question about reimbursement ever brought up? Do you work for a non- profit? Very bizarre. Please speak up and put in a reimbursement for the next office treat! See what happens then!
