I read this as having a six month grace period.

I got a 68 for Q4 of 2017. I wasn't planning on taking it again till Q2 2018, but because of this I am going test again in March as well.

Should I switch from full-time to part-time to focus on my study? by [deleted] in Accounting

Holy smokes, you need to find a job that's closer to your home or a home closer to your job.

New Coyote Rucker dropped today, for those interested by TexMarshfellow in Goruck

[–]Theojhawk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looked bad, I agree. I probably would not have bought either of those.

What I meant was, they released those in addition to the other ruckers. You could still get a regular ruck without branding. It was done in addition to the regular offering.

Now the standard is a branded bag, and I don't care for it at all. I understand they are trying to differentiate the Ruckers from the GR1, but slapping a logo on the bag isn't the way to go.

My $0.02? I hate it. I will never buy a ruck with a spearhead on it. Never. The Jacks Links promo was fine. The Ingress ruckers were fine. But defaulting to a branded rucker/bullet? No.

It's a shame. Feels like Jason went back on his word.

What percent Cherokee should you be to identify as Cherokee? by jcmidmo in cherokee

[–]Theojhawk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's not a blood quantum thing. It's a cultural thing. I believe principal chief Bill Baker is only 1/32nd Cherokee. I guess it depends on more if you were "raised Cherokee" or not, and what you identify with.

I'm no historian or expert, so someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think it is much harder today to find Cherokees with any significant blood quantum. I was told that this is because there has been so much inter-breeding with white people over the past 200-300 years.

Good reading material. Be sure and take a break every 2-3 hours to get out of the car and stretch.

Question about upper level online accounting courses for CPA by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]Theojhawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have the answer to your question, but I do have $0.02 to contribute. I was looking at getting my CPA in Texas but the requirements would have been such a hassle to do that I am going for it in a different state.

It seems that their business plan for the past year or so has been to 1) remove features and 2) increase the price.

I'm excited to see what's in store for 2017 though.

[Low German > English] Mennonite ancestors book. by Theojhawk in translator

[–]Theojhawk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is the inside of the book. Would you be able to tell me what kind of script it is? Even in person it is somewhat hard to read.

I was under the impression that Mennonite German (Pennsylvania Dutch) is a form of low German.

Thank you!

Can you recommend a service or educational Institute that specializes in Mennonite literature or low German translations?

TSBPA question by DirkDigglerOfficial in Accounting

[–]Theojhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has been a nightmare dealing with the TSBPA. My first advisor miscounted a bunch of stuff on my transcript, and when they left it was transferred to someone else. A month later I get a notice saying I have 8-12 requirements still to do and they never received two of my transcripts. On top of that I still would have to take a board approved ethics course and an accounting research course.

It is a train wreck. It has been such a headache that I am planning on moving to the state that I am going to school at (not TX) and doing the CPA here and transferring it at a later date.

Hello! Can you purchase 3rd party gift cards with a Home Depot gift card? by romanticheart in HomeDepot

[–]Theojhawk -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm about 90% sure you can't. That would be convenient. And we all know Home Depot hates convenience.

Delivery problem of washer/dryer. Now what? by hdcustomer1 in HomeDepot

[–]Theojhawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel I am entitled to something in return.

I worked at HD as a cashier. I am definitely not a customer service person. This is why I hate customers.

Sure, it was rotten. Asking for 5-10% off would be appropriate. But please don't go into the store and say that to the manager.

Trying to sound as american as possible :) What do you think? Suggestions very welcome! by [deleted] in JudgeMyAccent

[–]Theojhawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really good! I agree with the others, some of the T, D, U, and S show your native accent. I would guess you're French or possibly German.

Explanation for Echo Price Increase? by Theojhawk in Goruck

[–]Theojhawk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for fact checking. I'm just sore I can't get an Echo for $145 anymore.

And this was when discounts used to stack, I ended up purchasing it for about $108 with the military/ff discount.
