"I'm travelling for work and instead of eating a fancy dinner out, I've decided to cook a cheaper meal in the hotel room. Even though the hotel room didn't have a kitchen, I managed to use the coffee machine to cook chicken with butter and garlic. Although the company allows me to expense dinner while travelling, I wanted to save money because I know that every dollar counts on the P&L. It's the little things that get you promoted," he wrote.

Needless to say, the post has gone viral and people have taken to comments section to have their say.

"Not to mention, saving company money by ¡°cooking¡± on a business trip isn¡¯t impactful in any way. Can he find a way to save money across the board? that¡¯s impactful. A few small meals here and there, nope. Plus he is putting himself at risk and messing up a coffee machine for others," a user commented.

"As someone who's lived in a hotel, this is ridiculous. You're supposed to use the clothing iron to cook the chicken and the coffee pot for pasta or mashed potatoes," a user joked.

"Did he write about this in his end of year performance review that he cooks raw chicken in hotel coffee pots to save the company money or does he just share it anecdotally?" another user quipped.

"When I was a poor college kid, this is how I¡¯d cook ramen. Works well for that, but you¡¯d have to be an absolute insane person to cook anything that has a possibility of carrying foodborne illnesses in one," another user added.
