The story

Amy has spent three years on the road for her company, fronting sixty-eight thousand dollars in travel costs and cataloguing every flight, hotel and meal receipt in her phone. When she is called into a conference room and told her role is being eliminated, she is offered a separation agreement and three months' salary. The company's Finance department claims her expense reports are gone, and her manager and HR insist that without receipts there can be no reimbursement.

But Amy has every receipt stored by date, and she refuses to sign. As she packs up her desk, she learns that others have been cut too. At home, her parents panic about the mortgage and her future. Amy knows exactly what she is owed, and she is determined to collect it, one way or another.

Opening

Brenda, the Director of Finance, delivered the line with the same flat tone one might use to comment on the weather.

I stared at her.

Three hundred days on the road. Sixty-eight thousand dollars I’d fronted. Eighty-six flight receipts. A hundred and ninety-four hotel invoices. All neatly cataloged in the photo album on my phone, organized by date.

“Gone?” I let out a sharp, incredulous laugh. “Right. Fine.”

Brenda blinked, momentarily surprised.

She’d expected me to panic.

The conference room air conditioning was cranked up too high.
