Every time my manager makes a mistake or forgets to delegate something to us, she blames it on me or another coworker. It's insane and makes me feel like I'm working in retail and not a professional office. Would it be too petty of me to try to set her up and catch her passing the buck and making her look bad in front of the upper management team?

There is a difference between documenting things to CYA versus purposely trying to set someone up to look bad.

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

Are private companies easier to work at than public companies in accounting? We have such an accelerated close deadline at the publicly traded company I’m at now, I really hate the inflexible tight deadlines and analysis seems to drag on forever after that. We also close AP/AR very early in the month yet that doesn’t stop payments/receipts from happening so we’re constantly adjusting our accruals until the end of month. Do private companies start their close after the month actually ends?
