I have seen greater scrutiny over the last year when my tecnicians offer one of my credit cards. The card is in my name (obviously female) and they sign their names, very male dudes. Only our very long-term suppliers continue to accept my credits cards that are submitted by my employees. I view it as an inconvenience to me personally that I need to obtain some other credit mechanism for my staff. I also find the new restrictions to credit card use provide me a much greater level of protection, especially considering how much trust I place in my employees. (They carry cards with $10-$20K available balances.)
Our resident Banker, Lady Sage, offers the best advice for all of us to follow. Obviously, I had the most to learn and to gain from her advice.
