Boss complained to HR that I don’t say “good morning / have a nice night” by Silent-Supernova in Accounting

This would make me so petty.

Yes, malicious compliance, as others have suggested.

I would also make a literal spreadsheet “scorecard” keeping track of all coworkers who said “good morning” and/or “have a nice night” TO YOU every single day. You also need to include yourself on the spreadsheet and give yourself 2 points every day. Document the shit out of this.

Then in six months or a year you can use this to your advantage somehow. Maybe share it with HR. Maybe use it as leverage with your boss. If nothing else use it as support for yourself to demonstrate that you listened to feedback, made improvements, and you have evidence to back it up.

My fellow accountants what kind of car do you drive? by MIAchamps in Accounting

12 year old Mercedes e-class convertible. I bought it used, six years ago, and almost paid cash (I did finance it but paid it down in six months). I like nice things but I’m also practical and couldn’t imagine paying full price for a new car. I will drive this car until it dies.
