Meaner than Ebenezer Scrooge

This outrageous expense expose and all its corporate ‘jolly’ connotations, somehow hit a really perverse note with me. I am not so outraged by the first class air travel, the expensive restaurants or the luxury hotels. Hell aren’t we getting used to tales of pigs at the trough, snouts buried in the free swill?

No, way more obscene than that is the tight fisted, morally corrupt little individual who claimed 89p in McDonalds! What festers within the mind of a civil servant who claims such a paltry amount? No doubt devoid of friends, they flipped out the corporate credit card for such a tiny amount and expected us to pay for their lonely lunch. What a petty minded and sad character they must be.
