Ugly Car, But Does it Matter?

When members of my team travel and I pay for their tickets, meals and hotels, I expect them to work for me. That’s only reasonable. Now, if one of them was going out of town and asked if they could meet with someone about a side deal after hours, after our business was taken care of, and it wouldn’t affect my company, then I’d be okay with that. But I probably wouldn’t be too thrilled if I found out they were just working a side deal on my nickel! 

Really, I think the Golden Rule applies here. Go talk to your boss, and be honest. If you’ll do this, then I think you’ll probably be cleared to rock and roll with this thing.
