Filing Expenses After a Business Trip: Where's the Receipt?

Morning! I've come to hand in my expenses.

早上好！我来交报销单。

Great! Is this from the Manchester trip last week?

好的！是上周去 Manchester 出差的吗？

That's right. Everything's in this envelope.

对。全都在这个信封里。

Lovely. Let me have a quick look.

好。我快速看一下。

Hmm, where's the receipt for this taxi?

嗯，这笔出租车的收据在哪儿？

Oh no. I was sure I'd put it in there.

哎呀，糟了。我明明记得放进去了。

Let me check my wallet... no, it's not here.

我看看钱包……没有，不在这儿。

I'm afraid I can't pay it without a receipt.

恐怕没有收据我没法给你报。

Seriously? It was forty-five pounds!

不是吧？那可是 45 英镑啊！

Well... there's another small problem.

嗯……还有一个小问题。

Your dinner on Tuesday came to sixty pounds.

你周二那顿晚餐花了 60 英镑。

The limit is forty pounds per person.

标准是每人 40 英镑。

Really? Nobody told me about a limit!

真的吗？没人跟我说过有上限啊！

It's all in the expense policy on the intranet.

这些在内网的报销制度里都写着。

Well, I was actually taking a client out to dinner.

嗯，其实那次是我请客户吃饭。

Does that make any difference?

这样会有什么不同吗？

Oh, that changes things! Client dinners have a higher limit.

哦，那就不一样了！招待客户的餐费标准更高。

Just write the client's name on the form.

你在表上写上客户的名字就行。

Great, I'll do that right now.

太好了，我现在就写。

So what about the taxi? Can I do anything?

那出租车那笔呢？我有什么办法吗？

Did you pay for it by card?

你是刷卡付的吗？

Yes, I did. With my own debit card.

是的，用我自己的借记卡付的。

Then your bank statement will show the payment.

那你的银行流水上会有这笔付款。

Print it out and add a short note explaining it.

把它打印出来，再附一张简短的说明。

Is that enough, or do I need anything else?

这样就够了吗，还是还需要别的？

Your manager will need to approve it by email.

需要你的经理发邮件批准。

Ugh, she's on holiday until Monday!

唉，她休假要到周一才回来！

That's fine. The deadline isn't until next Friday.

没关系。截止日期是下周五。

Oh, thank goodness. That's such a relief!

哦，谢天谢地。总算松了口气！

Top tip: take a photo of every receipt straight away.

给你个建议：每张收据拿到就马上拍照。

Ha, believe me, I've learned my lesson!

哈，相信我，我已经吸取教训了！

Bring it all back once it's approved, okay?

批下来以后把东西都拿回来，好吗？

Will do. Thanks so much for your help!

好的。太谢谢你帮忙了！
