freelicker Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 :grr: I can't stand it anymore!!! You take a stand, they over rule you!! And they expect you to tell the client that they can't do it the way you suggested it to them. And then when the client calls them, they take your stand and tell you that you are being too conservative. :boo: Where's the justice in that!!! :sick: I need a drink!! Or maybe someone to cuddle up with. Quote Link to comment

freelicker Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 @freelicker, welcome to the world of realism. this is what really happens and it did happen to me several times and surely (and sadly :cry: ) that it doesn't end there. just hope that it gives us a learning experience. sometimes we just have to realize the it's best for juniors to just be sure about their documentation of the transactions in question, place it in a confi-folder, and let the boss assume the risk. that has always been my position. so far they have and couldn't point anything against me on that if ever things go out of hand. just a friendly sharing lang. Actually, I would have not gotten hurt if I was a Junior staff, or even a Senior Staff. I would have chalked it up to experience. What makes it so difficult to swallow is that I am a tax partner and my stand was overriden by an audit partner . And yet, when the client complains to the Audit Partner after I go 180 degrees to support the decision of the Audit partner, she adopts my stand and tells me I'm just being too conservative. :grr: Hehehe, anyway, it's over now. I should know better. At least tapos na ang April 15 and I can breathe a little easier now. Quote Link to comment

JohnCastle Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Hello fellow accountants! It's been quite a while since I last posted. Been very busy with tons of work. Guess you know the stuff the suffocates most people when you hear the words audit and tax deadlines. Oh boy, thanks it's over. Just a few reviews and clean ups and follow ups. I couldn't catch up on the readings here anymore. Looks like these thread has picked up from where I have left off. Hope you all have a great weekend! For me I'll be on a weekend break.

freelicker Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Talaga naman!! Accountants really work hard, play hard. After all those long nights working, now they ask if they can go out with me tonight to go drinking!!! Ay naku, yan ang mahirap pag tumatanda ka na. Hindi ka na makasabay sa mga bata.
