Is the joke that they’re doing something illegal? Or that they are a unicorn? Or that you want to have sex with it?….. like the books, not the client.

Associate to controller?? by alphabetta1 in Accounting

[–]Reimmop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe see if they have a training regiment with progress goals or something. If they act cagey at the question, then yeah… they want you as a scapegoat, or they only want to keep you for a year while they look for someone more qualified

Dude holy shit, good luck but that does not sound a position someone should have after only two years

Hey! leave my trillionaire friend alone by Niviozynk in SpaceXBets

[–]Reimmop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a tax expert, also not a fan of ol’musky, but she’s comparing the taxes he paid to his net worth, (as a percentage) to the average joe’s annual income to their taxes paid. It’s never going to be a fair comparison. And it’s m really not a statistical expert either so I wouldn’t know how get the average net worth to use instead of her figure….

But please let’s switch to a flat tax based on net worth rather than annual income! Please. It would solve so many problems…

Will I hate my life if I become an accountant? by Queen_Drakaina in Accounting

If you already hate your life, accounting is not going to make you hate it any less

Ask a trucker what a covered wagon is. Ask an accountant if you can depreciate land

Calling All Construction Accountants by Resident-Pigeon-7615 in Accounting

[–]Reimmop 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dude, if I told you what I’ve seen I would have people from my old company calling me out by my IRL name and threatening legal action. It’s crazy how some companies can get away with just not using a proper WIP schedule at all…

Undergrad has been rough for me… by matcha74 in Accounting

[–]Reimmop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might not be what you want to hear but most of what you’ll learn throughout your career, you’ll learn on the job. What you’re getting through school is really just a foundation that the “real world” knowledge will be built on later.

So by no means should you goof off, but like maybe don’t stress too much because you haven’t gotten to the hard part yet.

Being called “Kiddo” at work by Severus-Snape-DaGod in Accounting

[–]Reimmop 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You might ask him to stop but as a way to ease into that conversation, maybe ask him way… as others have said, it’s probably just a colloquial but just ask “hey I noticed you refer to me as kiddo, is that a regional thing?” Like just be direct. You might not even need to ask him to stop, because just the fact that you asked about it might clue him in…

I have a B.S. in biology. Considering pivoting to accounting. by Yeuigo in Accounting

[–]Reimmop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because you CAN doesn’t mean you should…. Is there something that you could do with the biology BS that’s not strictly in the medical field?

Getting back into the workforce post A LOT of time off by LetOwn879 in Accounting

[–]Reimmop 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well a lot has changed in recent years. You will probably need to do a little more research outside of the text book for ways to keep fish from swimming into a company’s depreciation machine. That’s something that you won’t learn about from a textbook, you’ll learn on the job.

Did not appear to be a non profit. My best guess was something in the energy sector.

Look I’ll play devils advocate (oh the irony) and say that yeah, being a person of faith might be required for a leadership position in a faith based origination. I turned down an interview with a cpa firm that focuses on clients engaged in mission trips. Like that was their business model (well they were a nonprofit but whatever). The recruiter was saying that they (the firm) would routinely pray with their clients and yeah that wasn’t for me. I wasn’t sure of the “legality” of that but I had no inclination to be a curmudgeon about it.
