Tax Season

[Jim-from-Ohio]

Truly one of the finest times of the year.  I love everything about it, the workload, the time pressures, working long hours, working on the weekend, scheduling to optimize the number of returns I can do, the satisfaction of providing a quality service at a fair price.  I will truly miss tax season when it comes to an end.  I wish it was tax season all year long.

" I love everything about it"

Aren't you the same guy that was doing some significant complaining about remote returns a couple of days ago? 🤣

Oh yeah.. except that, and people licking their fingers when fiddling with their papers.. but everything else about it.. i love tax season.

3:45 pm today.. running behing my goal of 25 returns a day.. so far today 18 returns and that includes some self employment income, some college credits but a number with just some w-2s and various 1099s.  I may not hit 25 by the time 9 pm rolls around.

Hopefully you will be able to get some sleep tonight after such a disastrous day 😯

I should sleep real good. up to 24 today and it is only 5:45 pm. had a few easy ones come in last couple of hours.  I thought about some comments here and tried something new.. one lady had a single W-2.. that is it , one W-2.. it would have taken me 3.5 minutes, down from my record of four minutes but I did what I never do.. asked her how she liked her job and actually had a conversation.  I will not make a habit of having a real conversation, where there is actually non-tax things being talked about but I wanted to try it since no one was waiting behind her in the lobby.

Your secret is safe with us.

I think you have been indulging to much with my favorite drink (fireball)

All kidding aside I would like it if it was tax  season all year long but if it was I would certainly schedule things a lot differently. I would be  Bleep if I would want to work the hours all year long that we are working now.
