Crossing the Line? I Show Her the Boundaries

Summary

To secure the development rights for the Apex Plaza project, I spent six months rotting in an absolute wasteland, pulling back to back allnighters across five different cities.

The contract I practically traded half my lifespan to win made the company stock jump three whole percentage points.

But when I brought a thick stack of expense receipts back to the corporate office, the new Legal Compliance Officer stopped me dead in my tracks.

She claimed the corporate reimbursement policy had changed. All expenses had to be preapproved in the system, or they were completely void.
