Courtesy of Carol McLauchlan, we have Pythons John Cleese and Michael Palin at their best in this classic sketch about Chartered Accountancy. This should be on most firms’ internal websites as a reminder of how public perceptions are a mirror to the reality. Like the reality this trainee has been enduring:
Most of the time, I enjoy my job. But after spending a good 9 hours tagging a trial balance to a P+L, I gotta say, a lot of this work is pretty damn boring. Anyone else bored at work? I try keeping a positive mindset, telling myself that it will all be worth it in the end. But sometimes, it really makes you wonder why you’re doing this. How do you get through it? Let me know!
Looking at the lack of action in recent times on this person’s blog, I wonder if the person’s spirit has been broken by the stultifying work being offered. I hope not.
