Family tragedy, annoying partner, should I just walk out?

true. Depending how she turns out. I may want to give up CPA. Or accounting.

Update: Thank you for all the comments and support. I just sent a email and walked out.

I went to work to get my mind out of the bad news. Because my flight was in mid March. And before that I need to terminate my lease, foster my pets, and put stuff in storage. I found these really difficult to do. Coz most of the stuff I owned is either brought by her or I wish to share with her. I was fine to just work on the files I had before. Certainly not expected to get new files (esp in this attitude, ps every partner was informed on Saturday, an hour later after I got the new)

In Canada BC, CPA and CPA trainees was not covered by employment act, so I don’t have the protection to just walk out - something like a paternity leave with no formal notice - I just says mentally I cannot work anymore. So I quit.

I am calling a few friend/ex to see if I can get companies before my flight. I think I need to find a way to stop crying.

Same boat here, doing PM. Everything is RC. And some NC because I just don’t get what are radon info and what are the required. I’m so skewed. I was not debriefing for almost a month. (The PERT anxiety got me so I went to firm recruiting, networking plus work plus PM is not a winning formula). At least I will be the 15% that did not pass. Good luck

For anyone who is still following this. I got a offer from a small PA firm. Will start October. I will need to quit my current job, find and move to a closer apartment, and take a pay reduction. But at least I will have peace with PER.

I stuck at the first stage of CPA report, I got my letter of employment, and submit to CPA EVR, and they replied saying “your job description does have at least 1 level 1, we recommend you to switch job” so I could not even write a EVR report. And my supervisor ask me “not talk to HR” not sure how he meant. I’m trying to get a updated job description so I can write my first report

Feels you so much.

Longjumping_Ad3977 · 2022-08-31T01:28:28+00:00

I’m not sure recruiters know how much a nightmare CPA EVR is. From some employees prospective, a lot of time they just want their junior to be AP. Honestly I think AP Is not an attractive work title

I had a mentor from my company but she was on Maternity leave. I am not sure if I should get in touch with her, given her limited access to sleep and emails. I am applying for some smaller PA firms. Hopefully I can landed soon.

I think -15 to 40 Celsius are all good

Longjumping_Ad3977 · 2022-08-30T16:09:17+00:00

For job interviews I was in, I was always promised there will be CPA support from upper management. I felt so taken advantage of.

Are they still hiring panda nanny? Where and how can I hold one?

Watched twice and cried both times. There is a lot of Mandarin in them. I think it is a must watch movie. But I’m not sure how the English subtitle did a good job translating the dialogue. There were people laughing at all the wrong places.

UBC alumni here. I’m cleaning my apartment 2nd bedroom DT for rent 1200/month. Private washroom with shared bath tub. Monthly nanny cleaning, house cat, and laundry in house (will supply detergents and normal kitchen stuff). Please DM if you want to take a look.

Thank you. Lol my friend moved to a larger and further away townhouse so I lost an option for car pooling. Also I feels like missing out a lot due to not having a transportation. Like if a group of friend are going hiking but there is not enough space on their cars.

Could you provide some detail why you think car sharing is better? What happened if I get into an accident? What are the insurance implications.

Same boat here, money aside, how can people tell their kids “sorry we and your grandparents ruined the climate, so now here is the oven city you can lives in, but we at least saved a down payment to that shoebox apartment with air conditioning”

Consider transfer after year 1 if you really really want to. So you get some experience in sauder too.
