  • When I was in college I had a part time job as a tutor for the accounting classes that I had already completed. My college also offered this late night courses for older students typically people in their mid 30s who were trying to get a degree while working.

    I got asked to help a 35 year old single mom one semester who was bombing accounting 101.

    One night I’m trying to explain to her for like the 4th time how FICA taxes get entered on both sides of a journal entry and she blurts out “I want to hump you so bad” lol


  • As an accountant and finance person I promise you “business major” and c-suite are not one in the same here…most of us are never allowed to rise that high due to nepotism and we’re just chugging along trying to make a living the same as the devs. I’d love to work for a company where the emphasis wasn’t on this short term ensuitication BS. It isn’t like entry and mid level accounting and finance folks are the ones pushing for this most of this nonsense. We just get dictated all the bs from the top and report/forecast the numbers.
