I'm busy
I’m busy so I’ll keep it short.
I’m busy because it’s busy season. And I’m an accountant.
Let me give you a look inside of a CPA’s life during busy season.
Btw It’s 11:42 on Thursday night as I write this.
I went to bed at midnight last night. I woke up at 7:45.
Got into the office by 9 for my 9AM meeting.
Got very little work done until lunch time as I was just responding to messages and “putting out fires” if you will.
I am on a new team as of 2 weeks ago. I am very lost and confused everyday.
Took a little walk to chic fil a for lunch.
Got back into the office and worked until 7pm. It was actually pretty productive.
Then I picked up Chinese food on the way home.
Got home around 7:45. Got a quick workout in till 8:30.
Logged back on and worked until 11:42 when I started writing this.
I’m about to go to bed with a little relief because soon it’s the weekend. I can finally have a break from work…
Jk. Working this weekend too.
This is the life of a CPA during busy season.
No, its not always like this.
And yes, getting your license is still worth it. Accounting is a great career.
So even in the trenches of busy season I do not regret my career choices.
It’s worth it.
11:46 pm. Bed time.
