*clears throat*
Hi, my name is Jen and I'm an accountant...
I don't get it. I'm awesomely fun, hip and cool. Why is it accountants in film and media are always portrayed as dull, boring, grey, virginal number crunchers?
Is this fair? Do you know any finance people? Are you a numbers person? I think there's a beautiful art in understanding numbers and interpreting them for people whose brains don't work that way. Mathematics is the language of the universe and I, for one, delight in trying to understand it.
One of the horniest girls I knew in college is now a CPA. She was great at sex. I'm sure she still is.
~Waves shyly~ Uhmm... I'm in accounting, though not an accountant. I'm more like in the pa side of things. Does that count? In any case being in the field, I can say many are not dull or boring. Also, whilst math isn't my thing, I think its crazy that theres like formulas that express nature (like Fibonacci) and stuff like that. It underpins a lot of the science and verifies what we observe to be true as actually true. Theres a certain beauty to that.
My son is a CPA. Accountants are like every one else except they have better math and analytical skills. Sadly the media has many stereotypes for different professions.
I employ three accountants. They're all awesomely fun, hip, and cool. They're also in their sixties!
Hmm. I work for an accountant and there's three others in our organization. All are pretty fun people to know and work with, though only one (not the boss) is what I'd call hot. I'd happily ... um ... do the books with her (attractive lady just a big younger than me) were she and I both available and interested. Just not sure how that translates into these poll options.
EDIT: Decided that amazingly hip and cool fit best fit for my thoughts.
Perhaps its because you deal in numbers and spreadsheets and get excited about that... not very sexy/interesting to most people is it. Hence the stigma... if thats the right word to use.
I think that most folks have the wrong impression of folks bases solely on their occupation....in reality everyone or most everyone is the same. We all enjoy sex and we each have our perverted thoughts daily, drink and parry naked. I'm always available for sex on the spot with most anyone and at anytime during the day, but it hardly ever happens.
The numbers guy who works for my parents business is a real silver fox. The distinguished, charming older gentleman. Hot. I'd sleep with him in a heartbeat and call him daddy if he asked me. Damn.
