The banking giant Citibank has won an employment lawsuit against an employee who was fired after claiming expenses for food and drink for his partner during a business trip and misleading the bank about it. London-based former analyst Szabolcs Fekete had sued the bank, accusing it of unfair dismissal after being fired last year over the expenses claim.
In an email exchange with his supervisor, the Citibank employee said he had "checked the receipt and did not see anything out of order," adding: "I was on the business trip by myself and I had 2 coffees as they were very small."
