Does your firm reinburse for Uber rides late at night and pay for dinner? If so, how liberal are they (i.e., do they approve the expense easily)? Do you take advantage of that often?

Bill to client directly via ordering platform

Dinner after 8pm max $40, Ubers no max

Yes, we bill the client. We have our assistant do the reimbursements. Good time to get a credit card with good point value so you can rack them up.

Meals if you bill 10 hours. No Ubers home in my office, but it’s a suburban location so everyone drives to work.

Thanks! Any limit on the amount?

Yes to both. IME they expense easily. I take advantage of food because I live near office, so I can consume at office and thus pay no tax.

I would likely never order the food if I lived far away.
