Agreed.
I was one of those employees and fortunately my boss (the CEO) understood this.
I remember I got a first class ticket from SFO to JFK approved and my rationale was, "Need the most comfortable seat due to lower back and neck pains, and the the comfort of flying first for 6+ hours is the only 'weekend' I'll have this month."
I was working non stop, and did not have a weekend off that entire month, not to mention was producing major results for the company.
No one ever made a fuss about it...
