sammynb 3640 Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) 1998 - Where were you in life? For me it was the 1st full year of working as a producer/editor on an Australian motor racing series, the 1st year of sharing a flat with my then partner (albeit 1st wife) and the year of a landmark birthday. Also Swervedriver broke up (but they later reformed so all is ) Edited October 14, 2011 by sammynb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonamental 0 Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 1 year out of uni, universally recognised as the coolest thing ever to happen to the world of accountancy. Are you in practice or industry? Only asking cos I've got my aca finals in 4 weeks, got me thinking about what to do after my training contract is over. And to be on topic, started second year at secondary school. Was goldeneye out then? If so, that's what I was doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to be on topic, started second year at secondary school. Was goldeneye out then? If so, that's what I was doing. I was in practice then (qualified with PwC), and moved into industry. It totally depends on the individual tbh, but I would say that if you're remotely happy in practice, then try and stay there at least for a bit to see what you think. The problem with industry is that it's so hit and miss. You can spend years bouncing from company to company trying to find something that you like.
