Patty, you sound like a lovely person. I'm so glad you shared your resume with us here. You have a lot of experience and no doubt love the contact and social side of dealing with clients. Your bubbly picture certainly matches this very well written account of your working life. It was a pleasure to read. Thank you for sharing it and pleased to meet you :-) ~DD

Patty: we all have different paths that we travel. So many people need help.
You learned from them all. Glad you had children you spent time with. Yes, people get replaced by computers. Nothing beats the personal chatter and care. Thanks for sharing. You were brave!!! *** flylikeaneagle ****

My grandfather did taxes for a living, all from home, and for many businesses. Me? I don't do numbers.

Interesting jobs, here, and all follow. I'm glad being a mother has been so rewarding.

Why on earth would you be nervous writing this?? You've done some really cool things.

I think it's a wonderful story Patty. You have had a full life and made a multitude of friends. You made good use of your time on earth and probably made a difference in peoples lifes without even knowing it. Kudos Sear. Well done. Nancy

Hi Patty. This is an excellent essay. It's written well and so interesting. I enjoyed what you said about your typing class. The ability to type is one that is so beneficial. Your piece flows nicely and is clear for the reader. Great job. Marilyn

It's such a pleasure to read someone how actually enjoyed her working life. I know Bob Mastery well we post each other on regular basis, he was the first person to review me and we've shared a laugh or two along the years. I never entered any of these 'quiz type' contests as my working life was vastly different to yours. Well written. Regards Mabaker.

Easy said this essay, I liked the introduction, the middle and the ending, well organised, structured and figurative, art of expression is logical, interesting, natural, appealing and straightforward.

My love of accounting drew me to tax preparation. In the late 1980s, I took an H&R Block tax course and prepared taxes for them on a seasonal basis for two years.(Boy do we differ here. I hate tax prep. I hate even going over them with my CPA. YUCK!)

I used to be a cook, and was stuck with the same idiots every day. Now my husband and I own a junk removal company and we meet so many different people every day. So, I know what you mean. I especially love to meet their dogs.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. I love taxes! I still do them for a small group of people. I'm glad you now have a job that you enjoy. I'm glad you stopped by to read my job history.
