Is a watch a work expense?
Posted on March 28th, 2008 by Corrin

The hardest part of my new job is getting used keeping track of every minute of my day in order to bill clients accurately. I have to note when meetings start and end, times of phone calls, and minutes spent replying to emails, which is very difficult since I never wear a watch!
That’s all going to change next paycheck when I buy a new Seiko watch and stop getting clients price breaks by just approximating my time. I’d like a heftier watch with a little bit of bulk, and since black is all the rage in watches, I’d love to go with a silver band to match all my jewelry but a black face to be a little trendier.
BlueDial.com has just the watch for under $100. I wonder if a new watch is reimbursable?




That’s a nice looking watch, Corrin! And a great deal. It’s so hard for me to remember to put on everything each day…ring and earrings are about all I put on and always seem to forget my watch.
