Office Idiocy

[WhiteKnight]

My coworker just had his expense report sent back, rejected by accounting because they couldn't figure out what "state" Oslo, Norway was in.

Must be an Accounting thing. I just had an invoice forwarded to me for approval from Accounting with a received stamp of June 20th. They sat on it for 3.5 months. Ahh.. who needs maintenance on our firewall, anyways?

[nwfsnake]

Well, Oslo is the city...
Norway is the country...
What state is it in?
Does Norway have states/provinces?

It was a combo personal/business trip so originally he wasn't even charging per diem. Now he's sent it back with some "revisions" that reflect the extra time he had to take to explain to them where Oslo is.
