Listen! I mean really listen! You need to get out of that CAREER, not job, but CAREER!
I am 46 years old and hate, I mean really hate accounting. I have been doing this for about 13 years and just hate it tremendously. I got my bachelors degree in accounting and sucked in my major , good sign that i really wasnt cut out for it. i did it because i wanted to be a "professional" , people would look at me as a smart person, help my self-esteem, etc. well it SUCKS! i wish i had done something, anything else but accounting. the day to day job of meeting deadlines, boring number crunching, coworkers who just hate it as well! true! most people i have met in this work hate it as well, working for the weekend. YOU NEED TO GET ANOTHER CAREER! you are only 23 and already hate it. imagine the same crap for the next 40 years! DONT DO IT! your health will pay, i know personally. i have only done this for awhile, i am now currently chasing online marketing opportunities to replace my income which is not bad but no amount of money can numb that monday morning feeling. GOOD LUCK

I'm 48 and I totally agree with you Rob and yes your health mentally and physically will pay.... I just wish I could figure out something else to do this is fulfilling. I have been in accounting for 20 years.
I agree about numb feeling on Monday morning.. Like the grim reaper is around the corner. My whole attitude changes. Because the last 5 years of being in accounting has changed. Your doing stuff that you though you already paid your dues for. I see it's been 2 years 6 months ago since you posted. I would be curious to know where you are now. :-)
