This question is specifically for corporate accounting transitioning to FP&A role. I’m currently a Senior Accountant with over 8YOE. I’ve been wanting to transition over to the FP&A side since I realized (after 8 years) I get bored of just following strict rules, reconciling and tying out numbers all day, and creating controls to mitigate/remediate material weaknesses. There is an Sr. FP&A role that just opened within the same company and I tend to apply for that role. Continue below…

Well I recently told a guy I have been seeing I have HSV-2. We have not yet been physical but it’s been heading that direction. Man I hate this part - waiting to see what his response will be after he researches and talks to his doctor. I’m on daily meds which help reduce transmission risk. You’d think that since HSV-2 affects 20% of Americans and likely a higher % of gay men, there would be less taboo but it’s hardly ever talked about. Anyone else in my shoes? Or had it disclosed to them?

My boss hits on me—and I kinda like it.
