Its the first time I'm seeing an accountant list. Sending it to my father as he's one :D
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you're picking on harmless accountants! This will not surprise you--I almost became one! (still might, once I decide what to be when I grow up)
ReplyDeletePoor accountants :(

ReplyDelete"An accountant is someone who knows the cost of everything and the value of nothing."
ReplyDeleteIsn't this is a paraphrase of a famous quote attributed to Oscar Wilde? I think O.W. said: "A cynic is a man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing."
Incidentally, The Value of Nothing is a great novel by John Weitz.
Ha! I used to be married to an accountant.:-)
ReplyDeleteOMG!!
