Hi I have been working in the accounting community for a number of years and every year at tax time , seems to bring out the nuts.

The top 10 things that you crazy?? Well i can start with a few of the top of my head lol ...how about you?? :)

1. Clients who call every 1/2 hour trying to get through to you to find out how their taxes are doing. ARRRGGG ... you are by a phone (obviously) leave a message , I WILL call you back ... i dont have the time during the day to answer this question 100's of times ... guess what? theyre doing just fine if you LET ME DO MY WORK !

2. Clients that bring you peices of the paperwork puzzle .. one .. at .. a ... time ..every other day.. (oh and want to chat with you for just a minute which never turns out to be just a minute.

3. Clients who answer no to deductions questions .. only to bring you 5 shoeboxes 3 days before filing deadline ..hey can ya slip these in??? *my head explodes*

4. Clients who run business expenses on their personal credit cards/bank accounts ...and vice versa ... even though they have seperate accounts ...


im sure theres more . how about you??? what makes you looney? :)

I've got one, on a slightly different tangent:

Trying to see who's worked on a file and when, as Profile will only let you view 3 lines out of dozens at once in the file properties.

Sorry... just drives me nuts! :blink:
