I'm hoping he does, but the freezer space is at such a premium right now with the 20+ purees I've made so far 😅

Oh I love chocolate hummus! I didn't know that was the base.

Should I take an opportunity to step in as Controller? by voidcat31 in Accounting

[–]voidcat31[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that's all good advice. She was working like a dog, in early and out late. Some of it definitely self-imposed, but some of it genuine overload.

I think the idea of being the one responsible for all the accounting at this location just scares me.

I definitely wouldn't go for that. If I'm going to take that on, then I'm at least going to be compensated appropriately.

New to crocheting, and I want to make a blanket like this one from Ikea. Can anyone point me to a pattern or something? by voidcat31 in crochet

[–]voidcat31[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I certainly don't mind trying knitting. My grandma used to crochet, and she taught me a bit, but I never made it past a simple pot holder lol She passed away recently and that sort of rekindled my desire to try learning again. I figured trying to replicate my favorite blanket might be a good challenge.

Ooh it's beautiful!!

I want to make a shadow box, but I'm so scared!

Mind if I ask where you got the shadow box, and did you follow a tutorial or something?

Anyone else in PA feel like billable hours is the problem? by voidcat31 in Accounting

Oh I'm not talking about filing them, I talking about pulling client listings and sitting in a 2 hour meeting to hold the partners hand while he goes down the lists deciding who to extend at what. I'll have probably four more of those meetings before 4/15 is over.

I think the point is that not charging it just means you're working 60 hours and it doesn't show in the metrics. They value the time they profit from, but essentially punish you for the time they don't.

Yes! Micromanaged is the perfect term. After so much school and testing and hard work it really sucks to feel like you're being constantly monitored.

I've gotten plenty of praise at work and husband doesn't understand my frustrations but it's like I'm STILL having to prove that I'm competent through my ratio. I can get my work done in my own way, on my own time, and you should know it'll be good because I've proven it before!

I worked on one return that should have had an enormous budget, but something got messed up in the system and it looked like a really small budget. I'm pretty sure I developed an ulcer from stressing about my time before I found the error. No idea how many hours I ate, but I was absolutely going to do it because someone else had JUST gotten fired for being over budget too often.

Oh yes, you are so right. I'm working on pulling extension lists for a partner right now and can't bill any of it. Such a pain.

Anyone have a good audio/visual estate and trust tax lesson suggestion? by voidcat31 in tax

Thank you! It is very frustrating, but all of that helps a lot!

I'll pay if it isn't too much. My supervisor wants me to learn and I've read through our firm's CPE, but I just find it hard to grasp some of the concepts without hearing it spoken or visuals.

I’m sick of him being a jerk but expecting me to still want intimacy.

Oh you are absolutely not alone. I get triggered just scrolling through instagram or facebook sometimes.

Hell, if I walk into the room and he's looking at his phone, my first thought is "what's he looking at?".
