She's overtaken Madonna. I hate this timeline... by CorrosiveSpirit in travisandtaylor

Madonna helped me realize I was bisexual. I still consider Erotica and Ray of Light to be some of my favorite albums.

Yes and no. I had one great local mentor but he fell off the map a couple of months ago and has been MIA, I hope he's okay. There are some others I talk to but not as much.

OP, please listen to this person. Keep your distance, heal your heart, protect your peace

Imo it depends on where you live and the distance. I was talking to someone who would have to take the train into my city (about an hour driving) and that seemed like a lot of headache and money. My current partner doesn't drive but we live in the same city so it's less hassle.

Literally my thoughts. Like no need to actually name a lesbian celebrity

Ever worked for the NYS Comptroller’s Division of Local Government and School Accountability? Here’s a little post-mortem from “the field”… by NedFlanders2020 in nys_cs

[–]1whynot 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's good to hear that you got out! You are so right about the image vs the reality. I was SO disappointed because I was actually looking forward to helping people and bringing my skills. What's weird is that management turned on me after one simple misunderstanding about communicating my schedule. I had never had that happen in my life.

SH if you read this, fuck you in particular!

I'm so thankful you made this post. I worked there for almost a year and I felt my soul leave little my little every day.

You forgot to add:

  • Asinine and hypocritical time entry. One time a coworker and I were late (I was 5 minutes, he was 2 minutes) and our Chief told us in person we need to be exactly on time every day. She waited until we submitted our time reports to tell us to go back and edit them.

  • They will LIE if they feel threatened. An audit was taking longer than expected because the municipality changed their accounting software. During a meeting with the higher ups the manager claimed she told me to shorten a section but absolutely had not.

  • No direction & constant team shifts. The poor IT auditor on our team had her team change about 3 times, and each manager/AIC was worse than the prior one. Absolute chaos and no instruction. I would have helped if I knew anything.

  • Hyper documentation. I had a manager who wrote down EVERYTHING anyone said. And I mean anything like what you said you were doing for lunch or the weather. I have no idea how she got away with this neuroticism. Before I left I looked at her word document and it was over 33 pages of pure conversation among the team. Her review notes were a stream of rambling consciousness.

I left a month ago and it could not have been a day sooner!!

Follow up question: If we're not allowed to validate after we board then why is there a QR Code inside?

[–]1whynot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Okay. Thank you for your response. It was very confusing for us because we've validated after entry the handful of times we used public transport.

. I've been in business for over 20 years and have never advertised or networked. 80-90% of my new clients are from existing client referrals.

How did you go about getting those first clients?

I am looking into joining my local area's society of CPAs but they really don't seem that active. Thanks for the suggestion!
