Morning vent

Had dinner at jonga jip last night. Loved it! As per usual!

Anyway, it's 7.20 right now- during the week I would have been on my way to work at this very moment or sitting in that audit room already trying to sort through all that shit.

This week's really been frustrating and the feeling of being thrown in the deep end is quite scarring. The team didn't work together that well- I've never seen so much conflict at work... Ever! We had a Vaccie on the team- he was such a burden on the rest of us.

I guess I'm pretty anal about my documentation. If you look at all my work papers, I have to make sure there are no typos, weird highlights, formatting issues, etc. I mean, it's a professional work paper and could be examined by courts/the ASX, etc. He was going through his work carelessly, ruining linked documents, misspelling a TONNE of words ("diffrence is imaterel" wtf, do you not speak perfect English?). This is not a blog. You are getting paid to be professional. Ugh.

I haven't worked with this team before, but I've been working on this client since I started audit, so as weird as this sounds, they've been the ones keeping me sane this week. I feel like my presence is under appreciated and all my extra hard work has gonna unnoticed by the other auditors but seen by the finance team lol.

Usually cadets rank at the bottom of the team. Everyone else that started at the same time as me is almost a senior accountant now. And my managers know this so they ask for me to step up. But because I'm still technically a cadet, I still have to do so much groundwork. It's like doing two jobs with only enough time to do one.

Seriously considering moving into commercial after I graduate. I have no control over my portfolio and none of my managers will let me leave the job because I know the clients well.

Adult life is so hard.

In saying that, I do not regret taking on the cadetship because its brought me a lot of good experiences too.

I'm just so pissed off that I have to work this weekend and its so hard.

/ end work spew

Life is ok though. I'm not exactly at where I want, but unlike work, I get to choose my friends, and I happen to have the best bunch around town.

Thanks guise :):)
