Hello all! Today I was called up by the person in charge of my company’s finances. They were questioning my per diem expenses and asking me about my meals.
I had lunch and dinner because I intermittent fast and do not eat breakfast. I also do not eat simple carbohydrates and when I am out on travel I have to get two meals to get adequate amount of calories.
They were telling me that the meals looked as if they were for two people. I was also $15-$20 under my company’s per diem allowance for that day so I feel like it’s odd and somewhat unethical. Why would our company give us a daily per diem food allowance and then question us even when we are still under it?
Maybe I’m in the wrong but I think it’s really weird that I stayed under my daily allowance per diem and my company is questioning me on those expenses. Would love any insight.
