Take your internal P&L and next to the actual historical data put in a column for the budget. Have supporting tabs to back up any budgeted items that aren’t based on a percentage of prior month/quarter/year.

My husband is an alcoholic and it’s getting worse with the holidays. He’s started every day drinking high alcohol-content IPAs as early as 8am. And he drinks them all day and all night like soda. He did AA when he was younger but is now vehemently against it. He is high-functioning. Has a PhD from MIT and works for a venture capitalist firm. I wondered how he gets through the day, but he started to come home early (mid-afternoon) and immediately open a beer while working. What should I do?

I received a referral for a company, however, when the recruiter reached out to me, it was for a role at a higher level than the job I originally submitted for (Manager vs. Sr. Specialist).

I only have a little under 2 years of direct experience for the role and the role requires 5. Should I ask to be considered for the lower level role before moving forward?

Which offer should I accept? Currently staff 2 at big 4 in Tax with CPA license. I want to leave tax ASAP. Both are public companies +1B in revenue and same salary. Offer 1 - staff revenue accountant so reading contracts, speaking with the sales team and legal team, a lot of work at the end of the months to close books and reconcile transactions to make sure we are ASC 606 compliant. This track usually leads to director of revenue. Offer 2 - internal audit staff so SOX and compliance projects.
