Shoot, I long for the days of 1994 when I worked for (evil corporation - in a lot of ways, actually) but my corporate apartment was paid for, my airline tickets were paid for, my dinner was $30 reimbursed every night, the rental car was paid for (either by week or when I flew home), the parking was paid for, if I had a hotel it was paid for (I always booked one with Continental Breakfast) - but it was 60 hours a week with Big 6 often plus travel time.

One client was literally not even 2 blocks from the hotel - the rental wouldn’t even get warm by the time I hit their parking lot - and they actually pretty much closed up at 5:30=6:00 every night - once a month I’d have to spend about 2 hours doing my expense report.

Shoot I miss even 1996 - back then you still had $500 bills and even $1,000 bills - I had some of those back then - you felt like you often had some good cash on you.

Boy those days are long gone.
