Job: Accounting Manager (United States)

I work for a drywall company. The company does very well and the people here make it happen without the need for more than an 8 hour day. Bonuses come 2x a year, profit sharing and 401k match annually, time off when needed, including several weeks vacation. The only down side to working here is... be on time. After two years here I was yelled at for my half hour lateness arriving to work for more than 2 years. I was used to being able to have the flexibility in the morning if the job was done. My advice, the job is never done, be on time, and for god's sake... double check everything. The most important objective of communication for an accountant is the accuracy in his or her reporting's. If the reader finds errors in your work, is the same as saying they have found errors in you. 14 Years as a Controller and I still can get it right, but they keep me around... go figure! I am actually blogging this instead of working. Ha!
