Accounting #4 - Performance measurement

[black_samvara]

No, nothing to do with stamina or energy drinks alas since doing readings were hard going and involved a lot of sneak trips to the kitchen to raid the dried cranberry stash - seriously, people call them craisins? It sounds like a combination of raisin and craven - bad trademark Ocean Spray, just bad.

I've always thought craisins was a great name :)

Accounting sound interesting but brain hurty.

I only heard it this weekend!

The seminars are actually very interesting.

This sounds incredibly, incredibly boring without the numbers attached.

*looks innocent*

There are numbers involved?

I'm glazing over even worse than I do in RL.

I really wish I liked accounting more, but I basically want someone else to do it and to make recommendations I can act on.

err, I appreciate you taking the time to read and comment, but I'm working pretty hard to find this interesting and enjoy it and I'd kind of like to not receive this kind of comment.

It doesn't feel like something I can use to start a conversation - or keep one going and it doesn't add to my interest or happiness.

Once again, thank you for being interested in my life enough to engage with me, I do appreciate it.

Sorry.

Not my intention. Was hoping that you'd found the secret of how to engage with accounting and could share.

Fabulous examples including all the high profile fraud cases!

I totally blame our lecturer, he's really passionate about it and meanders over every industry talking about how it all fits together so I end up with lots of snippets of interesting trivia.

I do better at explaining it in person, maharetr and work the next day tend to get the highlights :)
