Expense a Steak

Oh my goodness, Expense a Steak is the funniest thing I've seen in years: Say you go to New York's Maloney & Porcelli for a steak with your work buddies, and you want to expense the cost, but you've racked up quite a bill. Just head to the website Expense a Steak, enter your bill's total, and they'll give you a page of fake (but convincingly crumpled) receipts for work-related expenses, like cabs and office supplies. Your company's accounting department won't look twice.

  4. This is super funny, but I can't help feeling that this is so, so unethical. But I don't think my sense of ethics would prevent me from using this from time to time :).

  19. Is this for real? It's incredibly unethical. I know people will say it's no big deal...but actually, it's pretty bad. This type of thing on a larger scale is something we would all decry as unconscionable. Nothing about it being small-scale makes it better.

  21. This is too funny! I'm sending it my cousin ... she's a graphic designer and has always said she'd just mock up some fake receipts if she ever got audited - ha ha - jokingly of course.

  30. however just a short comment on this, might be your controller is accepting the bill, but knowing internal auditors, I'm sure they would find out sooner or later - and even though probably it is not material, but because of fraud you will be so doubtlessly kicked out that you wouldn't have the time to collect any belongings - is it worth for a few $$$?

  40. I bought my Breitling Navitimer about 7 years ago and wear it nearly everyday. Despite wearing Breitling Avenger nearly every day, having gone diving with Chrono Superocean , kiteboarded with it, and trekked across Australia, Scandinavia and the Far East, Breitling Aeromarine looks as good today as the day I bought it.


    Though, the second is still a respectable choice if these women are picking the Christian Louboutin from a reputed dealer. Like purchasing a Christian Louboutin Pumps form a store round the corner would not mean that folk would be footed by the fake red signature sole. The over all look of the footwear wouldn't let folk to take a second to gauge that one is wearing a poor imitation. Choosing the right Christian Louboutin Boots would not only make one look nice but at the same time would talk rather a lot about the social position of the lady wearing Christian Louboutin Sandals .


    The christian audigier are the in thing and real fashion oriented. If you are looking for shades that draw attention then hardy shirt are the ones for you.
