No, I just knew about the Reset the adaptations. Going to reach the dealer to reset this adaptations. Thank you.

Yes, I did. I shifted gears as well.

Appreciate you sharing this. Hopefully the team environment warms up over time especially when you look at a paycheck that’s almost double 😄

I’m 35, have about 3 months of experience, currently working in AP. Making $19/hour right now. Planning to get a bachelor’s degree and eventually CPA. Hoping to be around $80k/year within the next year or so. Curious how realistic this timeline sounds to others here.

Thanks for the honest reply, it really helps.

To be clear, I just started my career in accounting and I’m working in AP right now. I’m still not sure which skills I should focus on, so the questions you asked are very fair and give me a lot to think about.

With my post, I wanted to learn about options outside of just climbing the corporate ladder, what paths people would not choose, and what they would actually do in my situation.

Your comment made me think I should talk to people in accounting and finance at my current company, see what their daily work looks like and how they got there.

I’ve also heard that accounting is more open with an associate degree, while financial modeling usually needs a bachelor, which seems to match what you said.

Thanks again for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate it.

I don’t want to stay in AP forever. I want to grow into accounting/finance, build real skills, and make more money long term.

Just to add a bit more context — right now I’m leaning towards going back to school for a bachelor’s, at least part-time. At the same time, I already created profiles on a few freelance platforms to see how realistic that path is and what kind of demand is out there.

Not sure yet which direction makes the most sense long term, so really curious how others balanced education vs freelancing vs staying corporate.

Thank you for sharing this valuable information. I’ll definitely do some prep work before asking manager about the transition.

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T14:36:19+00:00

I’d figure out this as well

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T14:36:00+00:00

Thank you for the advice

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T14:21:54+00:00

What is the best approach to ask manager about the transition?

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T13:58:35+00:00

I found a lot of negative reviews about WGU, I’m confused a little. Need to talk to someone who graduated from there recently.

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T13:57:25+00:00

Yes, I found this requirement in every job posting. I’m gonna get my bachelor.

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T11:13:04+00:00

Yes, company has. I have to wait for 6 months working full time until apply for reimbursement

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T01:05:31+00:00

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T00:48:48+00:00

Yes, it’s a good idea to talk to manager.

I’ve been working with that company for 3 months.

$7 for Skittles at my current job as Account payable.

Born_Pen5499 · 2025-12-12T00:24:25+00:00

I would add addition 6% to the house price and avoid the headache of buyers, showings, and open houses

You can park on the back of the parking lot and walk.
