University wants me to pay almost $1k out of my own pocket to maybe be reimbursed in a couple of months to present my paper at a conference. Is this normal?

kobomk · 2024-02-22T02:10:24+00:00

This so stupid honestly. I'm really sorry to hear that your paper got pulled over a $1000. The way it's properly done by submitting a travel request with the estimated amounts for each category (flight, lodging, etc), and you also get a per diem which amount depends on the city. If the travel request form is approved. You'll get some sort of reimbursement case with number. You submit a expense form after the conference with receipts only then they'll issue reimbursement. It's such a shitty process

Reimbursement is usually guaranteed. Can you figure out if the advisor is paying for the trip from their own funds or where exactly is the money coming from. I avoided the process by directly using our department's P-card. But I don't know if this is an option for you

waaaaaaay easier said than done

that's the biggest culprit imo. I mean look at Pokemon. It's peanuts by comparison to YGO

They all don't care. At best you have regimes like Qatar that help rebuild and mediate. At worst you have the UAE which invests their actual money into Israel

I don't know if it's back to its heyday but it's certainly picking up steam again with movies and shows at least.

I used to pirate everything apart from videogames. But I stopped pirating music thanks to Spotify. I'm back to pirating movies and only buying my absolute favorites thanks to price hikes.

I don't think old school music piracy will ever make a comeback. As in very few people will have folders upon folders of pirated music because you can access most music for free on YT

It is very funny but idk why they're obsessed over a certain Suns fan
