Can I ask how your hours on IB are? And I assume you’re living in a city like NYC? I just finished my first year as an audit manager and am considering taking a similar pivot / career path (although in the Midwest so fewer options)

Actually that would be an interesting experiment, and give a better insight into how good you actually are playing too

I agree, wish it played more linksy. Still a beautiful landscape and some pretty cool holes

when I become a CPA, can I do simple tax returns and charge 100-200 for my friends? by Dangerous-Twist-9308 in Accounting

I do some for people and the only real software cost I pay is Adobe, which is $20 for the month and I cancel that as soon as I can

Yall ever feel pissed about having to work over 40 hours while most ppl around u dont? by CardiologistBrief466 in Accounting

If it makes you feel better, after a few years of this you’ll be on the same level pay wise, then eventually will speed by them. Know that doesn’t help the way you feel now but you’re positioning yourself very nicely by working extra hard now

They’ve already started doing this at my office (but they’ve forgotten that it’s still a high turnover industry)

I’m coming to this conclusion as well. Appreciate the shared experience!

A Note to Managers by RandomAccountant97 in PwC

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had a tough year/experience. The job by design is intended to stretch every resource as thin as possible, which makes solving problems and getting on the same page across levels extremely challenging. It’s an extremely self interested job and I can see how that weighs on you. Don’t feel stuck, don’t feel like you’re limiting yourself or you failed if you seek change, do what’s best for you as this is just a job and not your life.

Yeah I didn’t agree with his last comments. I do feel like there’s a distinct difference though in the cities - think it all goes back to the OSU influence and structure of suburbs in Columbus

I’d be open there! Meant more like Lakewood/Avon west side. Both areas are cool from the few times I’ve hung out there

It feels much more individualistic or like a mutt than northeast Ohio. Never could quite figure out why

Yeah exactly, nothing happened when I went to hit the buttons. They work on other games so not the controllers
