It's OT, but I've found that expense report submission requirements are often (either willfully, our just willfully not improved) difficult in order to reduce the rate at which they are submitted.
That's interesting. You'd think that would be irrational for the company as a whole, no? If your employees are paying for their own housing, meals, transportation, massages, etc., instead of the company taking those on as business expenses, then for every US$1000 the company saves on expenses, it has to pay its employees US$1300 or so in higher salaries to make up for it, with the other US$300 going to income tax, payroll tax, etc. What's wrong with my thinking, or is this really true?
