    This is the thirteenth year of my illustrious career in accounting. You really get to see the dark underbelly of humanity.

    I used to be a social person.

    Now I’m a misanthropic agoraphobe who generally avoids human interaction to the fullest extent possible.

    Fifty percent of this is the people I work for and the general environment, the other fifty percent is how dishonest and abusive the clients can be.

    Anytime you’re dealing with somebody’s personal finances, it gets ugly. I’m sure that insurance has parallels to my experience.

      As someone who spent weeks trying and failing to hire an accountant, this explains a lot.
