Hello, thanks for the invite!
I did A Level Accounting, it's really coming in handy. Actually, all subjects I did at A Level have helped me a lot so far.
I'm still just a first year btw :tongue:

.

No problem, welcome to the society!

Same here :h:

It's great, everything down to the night life to the city centre and the people. Are you planning on going to an open day?

Yay for Accountancy students and accounty people in general. We know the world will stop without us whatever anyone else thinks :p:

ESPECIALLY those pesky 'economists'.

Not to mention the smug Management students who have a much lower workload!...atleast in my uni.

Management, both students and workers, will never quite understand how important our job is!

I actually mean it quite literally though - without accountants, where would we be? Even in the 'olden days' they had accounting, so all the kings and stuff knew whether they could go to war :p:

I hadn't heard of that one! Just found a bunch: :colondollar:

An accountant is having a hard time sleeping and goes to see his doctor. “Doctor, I just can’t get to sleep at night.” “Have you tried counting sheep?” “That’s the problem – I make a mistake and then spend three hours trying to find it.”

Why do accountants make good lovers? They're great with figures.

How many accountants does it take to change a light bulb?
Two; one to change the light bulb and one to check that it was done within the given budget.

What is the definition of an accountant?

Someone who solves a problem, you didn't know you had, in a way you don't understand.

I tried to rep your post but I've reached my limit :sad:

Some more: :p:

There are three kinds of accountants in the world. Those who can count and those who can't.

Laws of Accounting 1. Trial balances don’t 2. Bank reconciliations never do 3. Working Capital does not 4. Return on Investments never will.

What do accountants suffer from that ordinary people don't? Depreciation.

What do you call an accountant without a spreadsheet? Lost.
