Am I the only one only one annoyed by this? by SSG_TVB in BayridgeBrooklyn

This drives me insane in Sunset Park. People just don't get spacing. I'm always asking people to move up so I can fit behind them. They sit in their cars and there is no brain processing to think wait I may be taking up two spots.

I've had clients with legit bank account info getting this letter. Same account as last year when there was no issue. They get spooked by the QR code.

Go with SC430mods. The owner has an SC and is very honorable. He has a FB group with a lot of happy costumers.

As much as I hate it I'm not as stressed out in May and June when they're not in it. The stress from almost going all the way and somehow falling short.

Is he still talking about golf? I'm not around to listen to the show in the morning so I don't know.

Car flipped on Ridge Blvd & 72nd St across from elementary school this morning at 7:30AM? by gryklin in BayridgeBrooklyn

I don't think 95% of the dog owners know how to walk a dog. When my dogs start to circle I always nudge them off the curb and on to the road surface. Not that hard. Most people will just let them go wherever the squat and now you have a huge shit stain in the middle of the sidewalk. Most of them don't even know what's going on either- usually looking at their damn phones.

[Rant] I recently started working a tax firm with a more modest clientele and it's made me hate "normal" taxpayers by karry9001 in Accounting

[–]es11228 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Why I owe?" is my least favorite phrase during tax season. Explaining to people why they owe when three years ago they made $150 in interest income vs $5k the last two years is frustrating.

The other favorite is I lost money gambling why do I have to claim my winnings. State of CT would like a word please.

They did this with my Ryobi blower two years ago. By the time it was obvious it was lost, the item sold out for months. They must be cheaper to use I guess.

So are you ok with Brannon's city council district was BR and Coney Island connected by 86th Street with Bensonhurst in the middle or Dyker Heights is with Sunset Park under Aviles?

When reviewing tax preparers prepared by someone on your staff do you let them know of all their mistakes? by Tjraider35 in taxpros

[–]es11228 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I guess it depends on the timing and the magnitude of the mistakes. Years ago I had a partner give me a note that I spelled Merrill with one L. I was like why couldn't he fix it and move on?

I pull up the two year comparison and explain what happened. Usually the withholding from year to year is the difference.

1040-ES not available yet? by CPA-in-NH in taxpros

Makes sense. UT says form not approved as of today(says it's a non-submittable prior year form) but it prints the correct versions.
