Formerly a 100% traveling Senior Architect for Platinum Technologies with a $10k rolling balance on *my* AmEx. I got royally screwed when Platinum was purchased by Comp Assoc.

I no longer loan money to employers and I'm not shy about telling them that up front. If you want me to go, you buy the tickets, you book the hotels and cars and you pay the bills - plus you give me my per diem before I leave. Or if you just want to give me a corporate card where you pay the bill, thats OK too.
