Is it frowned upon to tip when expensing a taxi/uber/lyft? Since it raises the cost.

I always tip 20%. Not my money.

You should tip. But I’ve noticed it appears on Corporate Cards as separate expenses. Ex. 27 charge. 3 dollar charge. If I were Uber I’d make this one because I think it makes people less likely to tip because it’s extra work. But I always tip regardless

This is actually why I prefer Lyft any time I can take it. As long as you don't wait too long after the ride to tip, they will show up as a single combined charge.

I get them mixed up but Lyft credits your account after you tip so it's one charge. Uber have them as separate charges and that's annoying.

It was the guys birthday and he was a single father with two kids. I wanted to give him more than just 10% but it was a $70 uber ride already.

Nah, I summarized the story for you but I etched this information out of him during our 60 minute long car ride. I didn’t even hint that I was going to tip nor did I come off as a nice enough person to him. But you never know, people get really good at playing those games.

No, we are representatives of our firm and if you feel it is appropriate to tip then tip. I would only question it if the total cost was excessive for the situation that required the ride and an obvious cheaper option was available.

Check local firm policy, mine states reasonable tip allowed. If it's a local cab then it'll just be one price anyway and I would give a fair tip 👍

I’m looking to transition from an academic medical center to pharma or a biotech. I have about 8 years of clinical research experience overall — 7 years combined as a CRC (CRC I, CRC II, and senior CRC) and 1 year as a PM. I’m also recently ACRP-CP certified.

I’ve worked with many different industry-sponsors and CROs throughout the years, but many jobs I am applying to require experience at a biotech/CRO/pharma company. Would really appreciate any advice or referrals. Thanks in advance!

Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min. Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed). I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
