Getting my CPA hours is like doing jail time

I would have got parole but I don't have money

Everyone who's in the jail longer than you can easier beat you up

Everyday you just want to get it over

In case your senior inmates banish you from this jail, you have to go to another jail to finish your time, but you rather not do that because you are comfortable with your own jail

Ehh. I mean is it that bad? Lol.

This is the story of my life. At least three times a week I get asked about it and how it’s going. Then when people aren’t asking others are making comments making me feel beneath them and stupid for not passing it when I first started. It’s not an issue of not being smart, it’s an issue of not liking accounting enough to devote 15 hours a day to it and wanting to enjoy the summer. Hang in there OP

What do you mean by getting your CPA hours? CPE? Or am I just completely missing something?

So why are you in jail

I am reaaaally struggling to get a sense of belonging here. What should I expect?? Tia

Advice needed - boyfriend has almost 3.5 years of finance experience at a bank. Interviewed for PwC valuation senior associate and now recruiter says they want to hire him at “experienced associate” because he has no valuation experience. Is this too big of a step backwards in career? Should he push back and see if it gets him anywhere? If he does accept Associate, is it reasonable to ask for written, definitive timeline (1 year?) for promo to Senior upon meeting standards? Help!
