Automating your business
Posted on March 6, 2010 at 11:02 pm by admin
I was traveling through a remote part of Idaho and had to stop off for lunch in a small town. The food was great and the service was even better. The special was a venison burger with an organic salad made with local produce. In most big cities they would charge you quite a bit for this specialty type meat, but here the cost was only $7.95 with a drink. The dessert was either coconut cream pie or a fried Oreo sundae. So while it was not upscale at least it was a change of pace. They still used the old hand written receipts and did not have a receipt printer that was attached to their credit card machine to help automate the process a little bit. So when I turned in my expenses for that trip I had the hand written receipt for what look like a gourmet meal minus the Oreo sundae.
