Have you been?

The COA can sent shivers down the spine of government employees. You're on pins and needles waiting for the audit that clears you of any malversation. No wonder you are physically and emotionally drain. Is it a random audit or are you audited regularly? Well, the worse part is over and like you said, you're still alive and kicking.

When I am still a white collar corporate guy I did. Now I live in a farm, I don't feel like in a rat race anymore. I also have employees to take care of things. I am less high maintenance now because I have employees that I can trust., Sometimes when I feel like it, I join the employees with the killing of crocodiles and ostriches. You know I am in the meat and leather business now.

I'm always good and assume you are always good too. I love working for myself because I have the best boss in the whole world. Could never ever ever work for anyone else again. You are tougher than i am!!!

Watch a movie sis to relax your drain physical self. I have watched a movie alone to ease my troubled life last week.

Looks like you are one of the trusted person in your office. You have so many responsibilities. Just relax; it's weekend.

After the exit conference, you exit from your job too?

You deserve a break, why not go for a vacation leave?

I am sorry, Reine! I haven't been here much this past week (roughly) either. So much so that I didn't realize you were having a difficult week! I would have checked on you had I not been gone myself! I am honestly not sure exactly what your post said, hon. We both speak English, but sometimes our meaning cross on us. This is your end-of-year-tax-season, right? You said it took everything you had in you to get the taxes figured, and then you were contacted for an audit, right? Something in your paperwork didn't appear correct? You paid your taxes past the due date, but not past the date the taxes would be counted late? OH! They thought you had kept the taxes, but they were just sent in past the due date! LOL! Uhm.... someone threw you under the bus? (Not out of the bus, unless that literally happened. If he pushed the responsibility all onto you when he should have been the one blamed or shared the blame, then he shoved you under the bus.) And I take it your internet service was up to its usual tricks, huh, which didn't really help you by letting you scream about the injustice to us on myLot...! LOL! Okay, if I got that semi-correct, then it sounds like you aren't going to jail.... yet, for cheating your government out of their share of your money..... again... I mean, you would never do that, right?

I can relate your situation of being physically, mentally and emotionally drain. That's the work of an accountant, being so delicate in our job but take it easy Reine, I know you can make it.

Chill and relax!

I'm sorry things didn't go well at work. Sorry for your Internet. Glad you could get back to let us know. I've been good. I started the move this morning. Still have lots to do.

Things are okay over here except for the weather being too hot and humid. I haven't been able to sleep much at all. So sorry about whoever threw you off the bus! That was horrible!

Yes, I have been and so I quit my job in Germany and moved with my hubby to Ireland. That was a good decision.

Sorry you went through a bad time. Things will be on the upside now.

Just deep breathe and take one day at a time. enjoy your moday and rest of the week

You need a few days break maybe so you can unwind ..Look after you ..

I hope now you have a time to relax and not to think much of the work you do.

You have had a tough time, but this, too, shall pass. I had plenty of those days when I worked. Glad you are still alive and kicking!

I am sorry you had such difficult time;/...but good that you are still alive (and kicking;).

I hope you can relax and live a good life.
