There was a time in my life, not so long ago when I felt oppressed by tiny pieces of paper: receipts.
For much of my working life, I’ve spent about a third of each year traveling for work, and running up a lot of expenses.
About once a month, I spend most of a Saturday or Sunday with a pot of coffee, a pile of receipts, and a spreadsheet. I do this on weekends because it’s basically impossible to devote the time to concentrate during a busy work week. My day-to-day work commands a higher priority. But still the expense report has to be done. So I sacrifice valuable personal time on the weekend to do it. That’s time I’ll never get back.
