Nerdy not needing.

I’ve bounced around a lot. I did work at a middle sized accounting firm for 6 months. They didn’t bother to tell me they were just hiring me for tax season and a couple audits. I thought the partner called me into his office to discuss the throwing error I made the night before that pretty much cost us the softball game the night before. Nope. Canned.

Oh well I ended up where I am with my wife, a great kid, and more house than I need (VA loan). I’m basically Radar O’Reilly at my job. I do everything.
