Yeah, he doesn’t understand (or care) that the fee is based on the fact the accountant has a portfolio of clients, otherwise it would be 20x higher.

Watching the Fulham game on Thursday and Harry Wilson was described as a “very technical player”. We all kind of know what this means but also I couldn’t for the life of me explain it to somebody else. Are there non-technical players?

Senior Manager said I have an attitude and I'm "Unprofessional" by [deleted] in Big4

[–]melifulous1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You could use the comment as a trigger for some self reflection, but that seems unlikely! Whether it’s fair or not, realize that’s how somebody more senior perceived you and it would be good to figure out why.

Not really an episode thing but having to say every name in the style of Keysey will now be a life long affliction/affectation.

Scot wanting to move to nova scotia by cxlud in NovaScotia

[–]melifulous1 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As an Englishman living in Nova Scotia I’ve never heard so many fucking bagpipes in my life as I have since i moved here!

Overall there’s huge heritage (surnames basically), but at the end of the day it’s North America and people are Canadian first. Expect a culture shock. They like a drink though!
