"to discuss the accounting dept

 

Here. How can you not take advice from a guy who drives a riced out Geo?

 

i love the wing!!

 

to discuss empowerment to employees to use company expense account

 

here's where i am at so far

to discuss the accounting dept

 

I'm not good at slinging the

Submit the receipt with the following explanation:

It is our hope that we will be reimbursed for this lunch because we got crap raises and benefits stink. We did try to only take the allotted lunch hour, but if we exceeded that time, not to worry, we'd only be in the office surfing the internet anyway.

That should get their attention!

 

I LOVE elmmX5's link. I'm gonna use that when I write my next memo. I smell a promotion!

 

I agree with Lainey

 

strategic strategies a bit redundant. Just use strategies

 

Before you use the "empower the employees" phrase be sure that is the tact your company is taking - because it would stink if you had a meeting on how to empower the employees and your management wanted to keep the employees powerless and in the dark. Something like this might work..... "this offsite lunch meeting was to discuss, at a high level, the acquisition of our newest venture and the impact it will have directly on the accounting department. We are being proactive and working to identify any areas of cost involvements or expenditures. Once those areas identified we can then begin to drill down to the next level of process improvement." Basically said - We had lunch, talked a bit about what's new and what's happening and how much it's going to be a pain in the a**, so here - pay our bill.
