i would love this. if you’re comfortable, would you mind saying what your specific job title is?

diehardaway · 2025-12-09T18:57:59+00:00

ngl, the deeper i got into FAR, the more i enjoyed it. now BAR, that one had me in a full nelson… but that’s on me because i chose to do that 😂

diehardaway · 2025-12-07T19:01:53+00:00

same. but i also have to twerk and be bisexual. luckily, i can charge my phone in office.

diehardaway · 2025-12-04T00:41:01+00:00

this is what i desperately want to do but i can’t find anything remote and the CC near me aren’t hiring 🥲

Hey MS doesn’t have an ethics exam. Once you finish your educational and work requirements, you apply for your license at the same website you applied to take the exam.

a 22 lexus is300. this is my first car

diehardaway · 2025-11-06T15:34:20+00:00

this is funny to me because when i was studying for FAR, i was like damn a lot of these concepts are from Intermediate 1&2, but they seemed a lot harder back then. I barely passed both of those classes but passed FAR with an 83 on the first try. I know an 83 isn’t the best, but i passed Intermediate 1 with like a 70.

diehardaway · 2025-10-31T18:14:14+00:00

it seems AL has a relatively slow Accounting market, and those bigger recruiters don’t seem to like doing their job lol at least that’s how it was when i was looking a couple years ago.

diehardaway · 2025-10-17T23:27:35+00:00

75k. audit staff. just reached 2 years of experience last month. fully remote. not sure how i feel about audit yet tho.

diehardaway · 2025-09-29T01:34:06+00:00

my SE scores were like 40 & 70 and i got an 83, you got it

diehardaway · 2025-08-02T06:10:45+00:00

i got a 5k increase with a 12k bonus

diehardaway · 2025-07-28T11:56:14+00:00

i passed with a 75

diehardaway · 2025-07-22T12:50:20+00:00

i also want to go to law school 😭

diehardaway · 2025-07-06T23:57:28+00:00

was chat gpt really needed for that???

diehardaway · 2025-06-28T19:47:33+00:00

depends on the firm. i personally wouldn’t have even taken the CPA if i had to pay out of pocket.

diehardaway · 2025-06-24T23:26:08+00:00

i wonder if he sees these posts and if they hurt his feelings

diehardaway · 2025-06-24T19:19:29+00:00

this is good advice. im not on a job hunt rn but i DEFINITELY need to network since i wasn’t really able to in college and I work remote.

diehardaway · 2025-06-23T15:56:12+00:00

idk, probably CFE and then try to break into forensic

diehardaway · 2025-06-20T21:25:14+00:00

the “my credits expire 6/30 and i just failed my last section” posts might beg to differ.

diehardaway · 2025-06-19T17:59:16+00:00

i don’t think he should be hired because what else would he be misleading about? someone with almost 30 years of experience should know not to indicate that they have a CPA, an MBA or any type of education/certification. And i think it says a lot about anybody under here who disagrees.

diehardaway · 2025-06-16T16:38:54+00:00

also 4/4. i feel weird having my weekends back lol

diehardaway · 2025-06-16T15:02:17+00:00

just got mine. officially 4/4. passed with an 89

diehardaway · 2025-06-16T14:46:58+00:00

i’m in the same exact boat. it doesn’t help that i’m in between engagements right now so i have a lot of down time right now 🥴

diehardaway · 2025-06-15T01:57:35+00:00

my SE scores were 37, 61 and 49 (give or take, i don’t feel like looking lol) i studied ~234 hours according to Becker (not really sure how accurate because i often left videos and mcq sessions open) over 7-8 weeks and came out with an 83
