I had to book air travel to a client’s city for a presentation I am making. I found an airfare five weeks ago of around $250 but was told not to book it because the client’s corporate travel department would book it at a corporate rate thus “saving money”.
Fair enough”, I thought. Anyway, corporate travel department finally got back to me today to book it myself. Only the fare is now $700-$800. So much for them saving money. I hate seeing money wasted!
