I was wondering, has anyone ever gone off on a coworker, maybe even cussed at one, and kept their job in public accounting?

I haven’t, but I’ve had a staff storm into my office to swear and yell at me…. because I didn’t cc her on a client email and give her credit for writing the open point questions.

She did not get fired for that, but I removed her from the engagement and she quit on her own terms a year or so later.

Were you the one being cussed at or doing the cussing?

Yes

People need to brush off heat of the moment nonsense. Apologies for losing your cool but nothing more.

More common years ago. It’s a big deal now especially if the person yelled at is a woman or minority and that person wants to make an issue of it. Have to be much more careful now.

On my old team a SM started yelling at another SM over interest being categorized as a dividend. They’re both still there, but I got outta that dumpster fire.

Went from a big firm to work for a smaller firm. The people in the smaller firm are protective of their work and are good by their work too. I no longer feel chaos or stress. I am treated with respect and my schedule is more normal. I am even working more billable hours than before, but it feels like a seamless experience. I don’t work then past 5pm or anything out of the ordinary for this time of the year. I am so grateful!
