My boss occasionally goes and picks up supplies and he's supposed to get compensated for gas money. They give you a flat rate based on the distance there and back, and his bike has good fuel efficiency so he makes a few easy bucks for each trip.
One day management told him he wasn't allowed to do that anymore (can't remember the reason), and management told him it was the higher-up's decision, not theirs. So he decides to email our division manager to basically ask if management was lying...
He accidentally CC'd the entire district lmao. We think it's because the DM's emails are usually for the whole district and he just clicked through one of those emails to find her email address. Management called him into the office the next day lol.
Well, they shouldn't fire him, it's hard enough to find that level of stupidity to promote above everyone else's heads.
Straight to CEO for that guy
Seems kinda shitty to deny him. There is a government calculated mileage rate that should just be the default rate (somewhere around $0.50-$0.60 per mile) since it's supposed to cover gas, maintenance, and every other expense it takes to operate a vehicle on the road.
As an alternative, imagine someone with a vehicle that gets 5MPG asking to be paid more than the set rate. I'm sure management would reject that as well.
It wasn't that they were gonna just stop paying him, they were saying they were gonna do it themselves from now on so they didn't have to lose that money (our store is in a pretty rough spot)
