I can’t believe this is still a finance job

After chasing down the 57th missing receipt of the month and fixing card charges that never should’ve broken, I’d had enough.


That’s not finance. That’s unpaid admin work.


We stopped dealing with it and switched to Ramp.

Spend rules are enforced.

Problems get flagged early.


The busywork disappears. You take the credit.
