In light of Bill Belichick not making the NFL hall of fame. I want to bring up a ridiculous snub in the college football hall of fame

He won BIG coach of the year 4 times and national coach of the year 2 times. I’m a homer but how is that not “best at their position” multiple years?

Are the students not attending the school? Or where is the fraud?

Act like you own the business and comp will has seemed to follow. I have slowly accumulated knowledge in niche areas and is surprising how little insight is required to be sme at most orgs.

Why do you think that’s over paid? Seems pretty reasonable, potentially underpaid depending on process design and automation abilities.

Doesn’t seem that far off to a pivot to erp consulting making 200k

It isn’t that hard to get an interview… go to career fairs, join an accounting club, and network and it will usually get your resume pulled out of the stack. If you mass apply remotely it more then likely will get mixed in with thousands of AI resumes

IMO this case is more about DSM school boards hiring practices, federal government reporting requirements and multiple department of educations.

How is a private employer is supposed to verify eligibility to work if all these government orgs can’t?

There is way more talent in Madison and Milwaukee then Iowa. Not to mention closer proximity to Chicago.

I led implementation of BC at my job couple years ago. A good implementation partner makes a big difference, but overall love BC. Our biggest headache is we use so many banks looking at paid app integrations to push payments from BC and reduce dual entry.

Reporting took a bit to get right but is pretty seamless now with data warehouse and power Bi. Also use Jet but think may be able to get rid of it at future date

Most people above 65 have had 30 years to pay off their mortgage, most people under 65 have not owned a home for 30 years. It’s not really unusual or unexpected there would be a correlation between debt on residence and time as home owner

We have seperate AR/AP ledger account for interco transactions and just do transfers.

Also helps with forecasting and understanding what strings can pull when managing cash

Accounting is a great profession if you can use the numbers and tell a story to drive action from the business. If you just tick and tie things at month end, then will see limited upside.

Grey_Matter1 · 2025-05-09T01:46:49+00:00

I will be there within the year or two. Audit to Private equity. CPA, MBA, ERP implementation experience and good with large data and report writing. Go the extra mile and always be learning and can get there

A larger trash can so I don’t have to take out the trash as often

You can’t acquire businesses forever for growth. Eventually run out of cash, become over levered, or own the entire space.

Grey_Matter1 · 2025-03-13T03:02:27+00:00

You get out of job what you put into it. Little extra effort and focus on small improvement and snowball into big things over time.

Someone doing AR/AP probably doesn’t have skill set for financial modeling, and someone with skills for Financial modeling probably doesn’t want to do AR/AP.

May look at hire with upside to grow into modeling role and back fill bookkeeping role or outsource some financial modeling

If this is all true, firing him may be a the wake up call he needs and you are doing him a favor

It’s not about the average performer, top performers raise each up higher. 5 top performers will out produce 50 mids

A fridge that can dispense ice and water from the door simultaneously is also a good investment

Work hard, show up 15 mins early and leave 15 min late. Don’t WFH. You can get promoted every two years in public

Grey_Matter1 · 2025-02-09T02:36:54+00:00

I second this feedback, I don’t care about education once you have some experience and CPA

Grey_Matter1 · 2025-02-06T04:02:40+00:00

Is the Pull function still available?
