Honestly, if you can’t understand how absolutely debilitating this is over a tiny misstep, I hardly know what to say. People commit manslaughter and get off easier that this. It’s in no way reasonable to say that “Oh, you shouldn’t have used the company card to pay 20$ for your kid - you deserve life-ruining debt”.
At the same time, all my coworkers leave their shit logged in all day at several computers walk around and use random computers logged in with other people’s stuff and they look at me like im an asshole because i put a lock screen password on my machine. (Im the one doing what’s actually written in the employee handbook of course).
So yeah, i yearn for the day they make a six figure fuck up because of shit like this.
you shouldn’t have used the company card to pay 20＄ for your kid
Correct. He should have spent $0 on a company credit card for his kid. He could have spent $20 from his own personal card, which presumably would have more reasonable limits. He should have ensured the card required a pin to use so that unauthorized charges couldn’t accrue.
I feel bad for him, too, but he’s incredibly stupid and I don’t see why anyone else should have to cover his ass for his own fuckup.
Of course there is an overall limit. I was just pointing out that charging a large amount single purchase doesn’t put anything in your way unless your purchase will exceed that upper limit

Allowing a child to associate their happiness with view counts is a terrible idea. Already too many sociopaths in “content creation” as it is.
Multiple colossal missteps.

As far as I can tell none of my cards have any single limits. When I remodeled my house I charged 45k to one to buy materials and pay contractors.
You have a credit limit so you can’t have a balance above it. You can easily spend 45K of you keep paying off, though
