the thing you are best at isn't really relevant if there is little demand for that skill. being good at something also doesn't necessarily mean enjoying it. the world's best accountant probably dreams of being a pro baseball player.
it's easy to think like this when you have an awesome job like drawing comics. i've encountered similar sentiments from other people who have awesome jobs.
- JoachimSchipper 17y agoI think the world's best accountant would enjoy accounting. I don't see why it would necessarily be more boring than many other jobs, and by and large only people who love their job invest enough time to be the best. (We're not talking "pretty good" here, after all.)
- roc 17y agoThe world's best accountant probably hasn't seen an actual balance sheet in ages. He's probably struggling to be an effective manager somewhere.
- borism 17y agoThe world's best accountant is an oxymoron. You either do accounting properly, or you end up in jail. Other than that, there's very little that can be assessed about accounting profession. Or maybe you indeed meant those Enron and Madoff accountants?
