An accountant would be even more hassle than dealing with it myself, so no thanks. I don't keep receipts. I don't want to keep receipts. I just want to fill in 8 lines of math. Sign it, send in my check, and forget about it. I don't care about the extra money, I just want the extra time. The added hassle I'm annoyed by is that I had to buy TurboTax and waste time installing it. And since I was efiling, I had to waste 20 minutes trying to find last years return to electronically sign and when I couldn't find it I now have to print out a form and mail it in. All because of a stray 1099-MISC.

I don't care about the money, just that the whole process has taken 45 minutes instead of 15.

Plus, I don't want to own a house. The added tax hassle is just one negative. I'm a very happy renter.

WOOT!
 

Okay, it is official, I got the new job!

I resigned today and my last day is 4/18. I start the new job on 4/21.

:D

CONGRATS SNOWFLAKE!

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Congratulations Snowflake!! :cheers:

Thanks everyone, I'm really happy about this.

No more commute, except on MUNI which is an adventure in itself as my bus home crosses Chinatown and I get to take the Cable Car to work every morning, rain or shine, it's the best.

Yes, I'm like a bad penny turning up, but I was greeted by everyone I know who is still with the firm like the prodigal coming home.

I cannot wait to spend my lunch hours walking along the waterfront! Not to mention the Farmer's Market at the Ferry Plaza on Tuesdays. Acme Bread in the Ferry Building and Boulevard on Steuart (or Spear, I can't remember).

Congratulations Snowflake - woo hoo!

Congrats, SF!!

Yay!
