Question about expensive mileage while traveling. If you are in a city (greater than 100 miles from home office), do you still subtract out your normal office commute mileage on a daily basis?

For instance, say you live 20 mi from your home office one way. You travel to another city and have to drive 50 total miles. Do you still take out the 40 miles daily?

I ask because I was talking with someone about the pros/cons of driving your car vs renting. I have always taken out the mileage like I would in my home city, but they brought up a good point about how you can expense all gas while you are on your trip with renting and policy never calls out mileage expenses while driving your car in another city

Yes it does I read it a few weeks ago

Just submit the total amount if they question it say you take a different route thats longer due to traffic or something, can't imagine they would nickel and dime you over something so trivial

Where was it, and what did it say? I guess I missed it, but would love it if you pointed me in the right direction

Too close of a client to rent a car. Total BS

It’s under expense policies in mykcurve

Just landed a full time gig, looking to get some furniture so I’m not working on my parents’ kitchen table during this remote period. Any recommendations for desks and chairs? I’m hoping to find something that’s easy to assemble and break down for when I need to move, and something that won’t cost an arm and a leg.

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.

Working on a regular desk and my laptop has been killing my back and neck for last few years. Finally spent a couple hundred dollars on a standing desk, wireless keyboard, and back/neck heating pad to alleviate the pain. Very hopeful working will be much better now.

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?
