A Citibank employee was recently fired for fudging receipts, but companies are striving to follow the rules laid down by the IRS
I’m in a moral quandary about a story circulating this week about a Citibank analyst who was fired because he was caught charging the company for a two-sandwich lunch he had with his partner without authorization … and then subsequently lying about it.
The analyst, Szabolcs Fekete, was fired for gross misconduct after initially claiming that he had consumed two sandwiches, two coffees and two pasta dishes during a business trip to Amsterdam. No, he wasn’t stoned. He later admitted that his partner had shared some meals.
