I don't think so, accountancy has never quite been up there in terms sex apeal of lets say a puppy saving fireman.SimuLord said:A financial accountant is someone who does simple arithmetic and counts your money for you and charges $200 an hour for the privilege. A tax accountant is someone who takes the fall for your shitty arithmetic and makes it worth your $200 an hour. A cost accountant is someone who gives you an excuse to fire that son of a ***** who's wasting your production resources and saves you $200 an hour you'd pay to the lawyer defending the wrongful termination lawsuit.ColdStorage said:and thats fucking hilarious!.SimuLord said:Licensed for accounting, auditing, and all manner of filling the GAAP in someone's finances. (HA! Nerd joke!)ColdStorage said:is CPA the north American version of being a trained accountant?
Yeah I was an Accountant since I was 16, trained up, got bored 3 years ago. Gonna go and do something fun like be a barman or a professional arse part.
My accounting professor this semester (Accounting 202, Managerial/Cost Accounting) suggested I become an IRS auditor because (his words, not mine) "it's the perfect job for a sociopath. You seem like the type who would greatly enjoy ruining people." Which in turn reminds me of the following:
Audens Avidius: I'm surprised, Itius. I didn't think you would stoop to arresting a fellow Watch Captain!
Itius Hayn: Only those who break the law.
Whats the definition of Accountant...
... someone who solves a problem you didn't knew you had, in a way you don't understand!
edit, I wasn't a Human resources type accountant, I did project accountancy, you know the person that figured out that if the coffee was chargeable then the company would make money on beverages as opposed to lose a quarter mil a year... yeah that was me, we are just evil.
And an auditor is someone who knows all the illegal tricks that accountant you spent $200 an hour on used to make the IRS think you didn't make any money because you spent it all on a $200 an hour accountant and will ensure that you end up meeting interesting and very friendly gentlemen in Federal Pound Me In The Ass Prison.
(you think this is helping or hurting the attempted ship with that girl?)
But I'm totally falling for you, this is fun!
SimuLord said:Quite the opposite, in fact. I can quite well take care of myself. I was thinking perhaps you may wish to acquaint yourself with a bit of a pattern-breaker. Well, except for that whole older-guy thing.SugarMama said:It was the financial support bit that got you, wasn't it? You men are all goldigging sluts.SimuLord said:1) Ask her. I'm game.
