Salaries are high in Switzerland and people don’t need to work crazy hours to have a good standard of living. The car parks are full of Mercs and Audis until 5pm and then it’s a mass exodus as people head home to their families. The place is like a ghost town after 5pm regardless of how busy...

I work in Switzerland and the Swiss are huge believers in having a positive work / life balance. It’s actually illegal to work more than 45 hours in any week or more than 10 hours on any particular day. If we are caught exceeding this, both the employer and employee are heavily fined. We...

You’re welcome!

Here’s all the vaccine facts

Intersting fact! Yeah, the whole team submitted expenses and the meals were entirely for her - I think she was under the impression it was like a per diem payment and that she could spend £50 however she wanted. The main thing in question is probably what is the definition of an evening...

I never called her a fat greedy lump, I just asked for opinions on an expenses submission. What value would it add to the debate by posting a receipt that shows three pizzas for £50? As for the posting of data from our financial data, you would not believe the level of data security and...

Of course, they are attached to the same pdf

Come on, who still gets expenses on a hard copy? I get an electronic invoice with her timesheet, invoice, charge rate and expenses. You’re asking me to snip a photo of a receipt with three pizzas on it and post it on social media from a works computer?

Naturally, I’m not going to publish personal expenses and receipts on here, She is from Florida, works In Visp and stays in Brig

Depends on where you are. In Zurich, Geneva and Bern it won’t get you much. In the more remote locations it gets you a whole lot more

Thanks for your valuable input

No, it’s in Switzerland

I think the purpose of the passport is to protect you rather than everyone else. Appreciate we are all grown up though and can make up our own minds. I hear what you’re saying about the rules though. I had to travel on a train with a few hundred strangers from London to Middlesbrough to say...
