Answer 4

Hi Shaun,

Absolutely. If you don't already have a company credit card, get one. If they won't give you one, call the hotel and tell them that your food tab is included with your room bill.

Make sure you get this straightened out BEFORE you leave.

Answer 5

Look up your company's policy for travel.  Plus different cities have different per diem rates.  If it is in there bring it up and you will more than likely get it.

Answer 6

Yes, most large companies allow you to expense meals when traveling on business.

Answer 7

if this is a required trip you should get reimbursed for meals

Answer 8

no if you cant afford to feed yourself then you should get a higher paying job

Answer 9

Yes you should but that doesn't mean it will happen.
