Blah, monkeyboy is going to be soooo broke. I have to go to Philadelphia for this work thingy that I have to do, it's a muy importante project for the bank. So our lovely admin insists on making all the travel arrangements for me. I should have known better.
He asked me for my debit card and like an idiot I just handed it over to him. We used to have our very own travel agency that took care of everything but we don't anymore because it was considered an expense we could do without. So now we have to make our own travel arrangements and then present the invoices to our accounting department for reimbursement.
So our little admin boy took my card and made the flight and hotel arrangements for my week in Philly. But he did not get invoices! He didn't make the flight arrangements online, he called AmericaWest. Ok, first of all I fly United, I even gave him my United Frequent Flyer number. This Philly trip would have gotten me a free flight ANYWHERE United flies but that has all gone out the motherfucking window now. Second, because he made the arrangements over the phone there is no neat little reciept you can print out like when you reserve your tickets online.
What does that mean? the monkey is going to have to wait until AmericaWest mails the tickets and receipt before he can submit an expense report to get his money back for the tickets. So that's $600 out of my pocket that I won't be getting back for at least 2 weeks (cause the accounting department alone takes over a week to process the expense form).
Ok, now the freakin' hotel. AdminBoy decided to put me up in a "cute mom n' pop bed and breakfast type place just outside philadelphia, actually it's in New Jersey" Awww, how cute? FUCK DAT SHIT! I stay at the Hilton! HILTON HILTON HILTON. Always. The rooms are always nice at the Hilton. They always have a nice bar at the Hilton. They always have a nice restaurant at the Hilton. HILTON!!!
So this mom n' pop place doesn't have an accounting department that can fax me an invoice showing the full amount for my stay. Without an invoice my accounting department can't send them a check to cover my stay. That means that I will have to pay for it out of pocket and then bring the invoice back with me and submit another expense report...and then wait at least a week before I get my money back. He doesn't even know how much they charge per night!
So as a result my checking balance is going to be reaching critically low levels up though the end of the month. ACK!
"Well monkeyboy, you could always put less in savings or stop your funky ass acounting techniques that say you are broke all the time" FUK DAT NO NO NO.
Now for some good news. We are about a month away from poocake's birthday. monkeyboy is working on obtaining a gift that will surpass last year's gift. There are so many cool things that I can get/make, it's just a matter of weeding it down to the coolest of the cool.
Last year I went on Operation Poocake Pimphat to deliver the present. I delivered to her an ultra stylish Pimp Hat with matching BLING BLING from Pimp Hats.com. I don't know if I will be so bold as to actually risk being seen by the poocake this year.
I need to go to Michael's Arts n Crafts to get the supplies I need for the birthday card.
