dear dimwit (michigan undergrad student majoring in accounting)

There is no need for you to print out the ENTIRE annual report of whatever company your professor talked about this past semester. Not only will you not read the actual financial statements, you will most definitely not read the footnotes. You do not need to read the REAL annual report to understand your introduction to financial accounting class. I am 100% sure.

I am waiting to print my 7 pages of notes for Partnership Tax. I don't know how an undergrad got control of the reading room printer but the dimwit is printing an entire annual report (the most recent page count was 700). There aren't that many people I can give advice to from my own experiences. But I can definitely give advice to this dimwit. Stop killing trees. Even real accountants/auditors don't read the entire annual report when it's their job to make sure the financials look (or are...depending on your perspective on this issue) right. An accounting major definitely has no use of a real annual report. Read that stylized one in your textbook! What are you going to do with 10lbs of that thing? UGH.

In other news, I got a letter asking me to join a class-action suit against my former employer as a similarly situated plaintiff. More about that later if I care about it later. However, I don't understand how someone in the auditing profession can complain about being a salaried worker and not getting overtime pay during busy-season. That's the whole point of that job. Working to death during busy season and not working during every other season.
