    If charging dinner to the company is going to tank your P&L, you’ve got much bigger things to worry about. And no, they ain’t going to promote you because you saved them $30.

      They’re not going to promote you specifically because you thought cooking chicken in a coffee maker was a good idea.

      Although, I guess you could kinda sorta do sous vide in one of you had the chicken in a sealed bag.

        Generally I find the people who go all out (not overboard) on expenses get promoted before people who don’t. Shows a level of confidence that most management likes.

          Another thing to consider: Are the ones that you’ve noticed get promoted tend to LOVE to say “yes” to management?

        Just hope you don’t destroy the coffee machine and pay back the hotel for repairs, that’s gonna cost you more than dinner.
