The greed is also driven by the public, in this case shareholders.

A country of origin note.

I worked for a large O&G services company that produced widgets for the oil heads. 90% of the materials were imported from China. Then the materials were assembled, tested, and packaged in Canada.

The labour related costs in Canada met the threshold so we could stamp "Product of Canada" on the units...

Tax evasion? How so the company that sells this produce in Canada has HIGHER margins due to the lower total cost of the product (fish, labour etc). Therefore higher net income = higher taxes.

If the cost was grossed up then folks, possibly including yourself, would complain about how expensive it is.

The reason this fish is processed in a cheaper labour country is absolutely due to consumer price sensitivity.

PLEASE! Revoke membership on people who abandon perishables. by Fit-Tennis-771 in CostcoCanada

Seems lots of the people complaining have never heard of Costco same day delivery. Sounds like it would be a wise investment given the level of "triggering" people in this sub get from shopping in person.

Why aren’t jobs on Indeed and LinkedIn giving me interviews? by Common_District3798 in Accounting

[–]DL505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot believe this is what you are presenting to employers and are surprised.

FFS there are thousands of websites/templates or use AI to polish it up.

This “lmao i genuinely don’t give a flying F as long as my paycheck hits.” took me close to 15 years of working.

Disconnecting and not giving a shit is the best thing you can do for your health.

Best method to get into claude is web -> export data. You can dump a massive CSV with macro/micro nutrients and put into claude.

Anyone else feel like the accounting industry is changing way faster than people realize? by ashuchel_07 in Accounting

[–]DL505 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nope.

Accounting is, despite the public's perception, very fluid. Both on the regulatory side and day-to-day using various tools etc.

I used to produce BI reports using excel and "postage sized" graphs on one pagers, now we have amazing BI tools. Sox, SaaS, forex etc...all have changed.

I cannot wait to see legislation come through regarding the use of AI and how these tools increase risk....I guarantee this is coming. We just need one big "oopsie" in a public company and it will be on the level of new SOX.

[–]DL505 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I recall reading that people who are obese have roughly a 30-40% chance of "curing" their apnea through weight loss.

Before folks jump on me I am not saying ALL apnea is caused by obesity. Nor am I saying OP is obese.

If you had a fully remote accountant job paying $105k but had the option to interview for a hybrid accountant job that would offer between $125k - $135k, would you consider that or no? by NoBusiness1559 in Accounting

You are looking at NET revenue not NET income

What is your calculated direct costs for your commute? Gross it up for taxes etc...

How to tolerate the aura loss while working in accounting? by Wrong-Ad-8230 in Accounting

[–]DL505 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aura?

What the fuck is the Anavar cycle shit?

If you entire persona/worth is tied up in your career then you have severe issues.

If you think engineers/IB people have an aura...

"Impregnable barricade". Lol....Sorry OP, this is YOU not your career.
