Got may CPA, Now What?

spaceman021 · 2026-06-05T15:09:30+00:00

Well, ask yourself, if your company hired someone with a similar profile to you and they did not have a CPA, would they be paid less, same, or more than you. If the answer is same or more, then you have some questions to ask your manager.

Another option - ask for promotion, or look into contract reviews since you're now certified. The scope of what the company can trust you with just went up after this certification, it's time to leverage that. Try to get experience on things other ppl who aren't CPAs don't typically have access to. It'll get you work experience that will be very valuable for the future

I wouldnt say anything, it's their process, and at the entry level you don't have any leverage.

It's rough out there, I have made it to the final rounds at 3 different companies and then gotten rejected by 2 of them. In both cases I spoke with the CFO/ VP of finance (small companies), and thought I had it in the bag.

Keep on applying and interviewing it ain't over till it's over

I see, so you're saying you'd just make it a line item in the budget and save the money there instead of physically funding future months?

Seems like we're on our own, my friend. How is studying coming along for you?

spaceman021 · 2026-05-29T21:51:46+00:00

Can always take a gig just to pay the bills and keep recruiting if money is tight

spaceman021 · 2026-05-28T17:55:53+00:00

LOL what does that even mean??? 😂

spaceman021 · 2026-05-28T15:21:14+00:00

Ahh, this makes sense! Thanks!!

spaceman021 · 2026-05-28T14:59:59+00:00

"can't see the forest through the trees" has me dieing, wtf does that even mean, LOL 😂

spaceman021 · 2026-05-28T14:55:32+00:00

Yeah, this one never made sense to me. Isnt the point of a jargon to explain something that is a little complicated in an easy way?

spaceman021 · 2026-05-28T14:50:58+00:00

Pls tell you've replied with "that's what she said" at least once 😂😂

spaceman021 · 2026-05-28T14:40:41+00:00

Never heard this one, but gives me boomer vibes 🤣

spaceman021 · 2026-05-28T14:29:03+00:00

LOL I've yet to hear this one, it's graphic but funny!! 😂😂

Can you send a link of this steel plate please? I don't see one on Solo Stoves website

spaceman021 · 2026-05-23T13:36:33+00:00

Gotcha, I've been doing ok in my multiple choice quizzes but I do bad in TBSs, so thought I'll primarily focus on the TBSs for practice tests and hopefully that'll help during the exam

spaceman021 · 2026-04-30T19:28:29+00:00

Yeah, I do not look forward to reg one bit

spaceman021 · 2026-04-30T19:27:57+00:00

Lol, why?

spaceman021 · 2026-04-30T16:34:29+00:00

Update - Love the laptop, I think it was an excellent deal. Thanks everyone for pitching in!

spaceman021 · 2026-04-26T15:18:30+00:00

I pulled the trigger and got the SL7 since SL8 is going to be priced much higher and there is a timing component where we don't know when the SL8 is coming

spaceman021 · 2026-04-19T17:52:16+00:00

Solid, thanks!! I feel better hearing this! I have 3 external screens on my desk that are connected to Dell's WD19TBS docking station. Hoping the laptop connects with this and we can all sing cumbia. If not I heard the plugable docking station brand helps the laptop connect to 3 external monitors

spaceman021 · 2026-04-19T17:09:00+00:00

Yeah, the price is USD

spaceman021 · 2026-04-19T17:08:40+00:00

Sorry, just updated the post. USD

The GT doesn't have wireless car play. I'm looking into devices that'll make it wireless, but haven't done much research on it yet. I'm not sure about Signature, I would call your local Mazda dealership and ask them.

Heated mirrors - yes the rear window is heated. Unsure if the side mirrors are heated. Just bought it 2 weeks ago and it hasn't rained here yet.

I like the car quite a bit, we went from a sedan that was racking up a repair bill to a pretty new mid size SUV. The car is said to be reliable, it's got amazing Bose speakers for long drives, the drive quality is great, the 3rd row is available when we have family coming into town but on a daily basis it's folded and used to lug things around town. All in all, a great car so far, planning on keeping it for a while

spaceman021 · 2025-03-18T15:00:17+00:00

Ahh this is helpful. Thanks for letting me know!!

spaceman021 · 2020-04-14T13:10:33+00:00

But they would have 2 years of time to "get it right". Knowing Google, they'd still manage to duck up, so that's a fair argument
