Friday reflection – putting things into practice – 2/21/25

I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m learning a lot of “don’t s” that happen here and I say that from experience. Things are done loosely, not a lot of documentation. I’m going outside of my role and being asked to work on things that I feel aren’t part of my role.

I was productive today, very busy as usual. I get asked questions to do research of why some things happened when it comes to travel and completing expense reports. It’s clear the expense was approved, they had to since the charge is posted to the account, but it’s been a while and now want me to provide history, but I can’t because I don’t have it, not a delegate or have access to their expenses reports so it has to go back to the requestor.

Somehow there has to be a better way to keep records instead of asking me and I’m separated from the travel process. It’s chaos, does anyone keep records?

I’ll have to begin the practice of adding email approval along with their receipts. I can’t see another solution. I’ll have to add this to my list to streamline later, no ⏰ time at the moment. All the Best!
