So my supervisor asked me if it was okay if I start taking my coworker it’s been two weeks now and I still haven’t gotten paid for the gas money and with gas rising up and it takes me like an hour to get home when it is just take me 28 minutes and it’s not my coworkers fault because my supervisor is willing to spend the Uber on her to come to work just not to give me gas money. I guess my question is should I still take my coworker home and just not expect gas money anymore?

Why would you think this was okay to do without getting compensated?

No, I would not keep doing it like nothing happened. If gas money was part of the understanding and it has been two weeks, that needs to be addressed directly. It is not on you to absorb that cost just because your supervisor finds it easier. Being helpful is one thing, becoming the unpaid solution is another.

Keep track of your mileage and your time. Employers are required to pay $.70 a mile and required to pay you for your time since you are still performing work duties. I would just ask “how are we going to handle mileage reimbursement?” (Don’t say “gas”) they have to reimburse you for your extra commute.

As nice as you may be, don’t take your coworker to and from work without being compensated. Not only is that gas, but extra wear on your car. You need to be compensated for both.

Is there someone I can pay to do it? Should I just pay the $375 to stay active to avoid this nightmare?

I’m a first-time prospective lateral likely to get an offer shortly. I just received a lateral questionnaire that requests billable hours, rates, fees collected, etc. for the last three years. Forgive my ignorance but is this normal/standard? Do people actually answer these honestly? One of the reasons I’m leaving my firm is there isn’t enough work in my group so of course my hours are low.
