As to paying, I just give 'em my credit card and write it up as a personal expense.

I will be the first to admit that the bureaucracy in my firm was unbelievable. We were required to use vouchers for taxi rides from the office. Not only that, but to get reimbursed for a meal, no matter how small, we had to get a reimbursement slip signed by a partner, then send it to the NY office, then wait 2 weeks for a check. That got pretty old, pretty fast.
As for the taxi, my point is that the bus, metro, then taxi option takes longer and is more of a hassle than driving. We weren't getting much sleep in those days and it just wasn't worth it.
