cool anybody's gonna practice story dog yes ok sorry 2011 and you can go back
and look at the series I'll put a card up to the series here Community College
- CPA what I think is important that I do think that's a cool journey but start
with a fighter program attacked here 2011 I did H&R Block tax year 2012 and
that's what we're going to talk about this video tax year 2013 I worked at a
CPA firm and I have a video about how I got that job so I have a video about the
vitae program tax year 2011 and then I have a video on how I got the CPA job
tax year 2013 and for tings it was two years there so what
happened in 2012 H&R Block and let me just tell you working this tax year
working the season at H&R Block was integral in me getting another job and
me getting the CPA firm job in essence it was integral in me getting my CPA
license H&R Block job also it just taught me how to do a personal tax
return like I had never been taught before I went from H&R Block and I knew
so much about a personal tax return a 1040 I used so much because that's all I
was just drilled on that personal tax return personal tax return and I told
you the classes I took were just little bitty tech classes and I was doing
real-life stuff you know because the stuff they teach you in school the books
is nothing like these people walk in to H&R Block and like you never know who's
gonna call on the phone you never know who's gonna walk in the door so you
better be on your frickin toes buddy they will ask you everything like
everything so I was just thinking you know for every story I tell I have I
could I could tell 10 mini stories about H&R block's so if people want to hear
more about H&R Block leave a comment down below tell me like you know like
the kind of people I worked with or just anything you would want to know about
H&R Block I'll make a video on it or you know maybe if you want to see it my name
is it was quite a quite a commotion overall it was very awesome I mean it
was integral of me getting furthering my career and it just taught me when I was
getting I hated so much about personal tax returns I was showing CP might like
mentor at the CPA firm who was licensed CPA I was showing him you know
literature out of the publication 17 out of the IRS statement or whatever the
about about dependents and stuff and he was like I was like hey bro it's right
here don't kill the messenger so now it
sounds all good no I'm telling you right now okay I said this was June 2013 is
2017 so but it wasn't 20 I'm sorry okay five years before this five years before
right now it's 2017 it's October 2017 October 2012 around you I get the finder
program in the spring of 2012 then I graduated from Florida Atlantic
University where the bachelors in the count of four year degree accounting so
I went from Community College to FAU and I graduated in August 2012 with a
four-year degree accounting degree what do you do now
well I wanted to be a CPA and what I'm getting at is so amazingly on five years
you can't connect the dots going forward just backwards I mean you can try to do
it forwards what I'm saying is at the time no one thought each norwalk was a
good idea no I'm gonna definitely dealt delve deeper into that I'll sort of
saying this five years later now with me looking back at H&R Block it seems like
a no-brainer it's like duh and just was like yeah vitae H&R block CPA for my own
business like duh I had the vision I had the vision
I knew it felt right inside I knew H&R Block was calling me and sometimes you
know I always say there's like a couple people that I'll ask for their opinion I
don't even think these people thought this was a good idea but silly a no
brainer no so I'm just saying trust your gut you know what I mean like
because it's your life and no one knows more about your life
than you the thing is it was right after caught right up for the write-up for
college and I didn't do any internship side note I would say do an internship
if that's your office right into the internships I just had degree I didn't
know I do any extracurricular stuff I was older and didn't really work I
didn't have any office jobs on my resume or anything so I just had it's manual
labor and running them streets and they don't really when you put on application
running in them streets I don't really care too much do money them straight dog
sir no I graduated in August and then I say about what am I going to do after
graduation I don't have anything lined up I just have this degree okay I want
to get to see fit license how am I going to get a job or to seek a firm well
possibly how you can do that was if you have experience from a seasoned at H&R
Block sounds free legit I mean the wonder if that doesn't work out and you
just work at H&R Block and you can't get a job anywhere else well you can just
keep working H&R Block okay what are you doing H&R Block you do tax returns well
you just did tax returns to the writing program and you loved it you finally
found something that felt fulfilling because you're just helping regular
people get money back and it felt awesome yeah that's cool okay so yeah do
it right well it costs money to take the course okay well you just pay Lee twenty
thousand dollars a year a school degree we each class there cost money so you
taking another class so yeah I know but everyone was like everyone I talked to
was like well you just you just gotta for your accounting degree and now
you're going to the H&R Block class that you have to pay money for it just seemed
like a the way to go for what I was for where I was gonna do because I didn't
taking the internship because I didn't have really opps I didn't have anything
you lined up and then I was thinking I you know go to job fairs and this and
that and oh my god
so it really worked out for me and I had the best experience at age normal so it
helped out career-wise no one thought it was going to be good I had the best
experience at H&R Block I met some of the greatest people there that helped me
so much with taxes with people skills there was a guy Jeffrey there I worked
with that was like him who was I think studying to get his enrolled agent
license and he had this the vastest knowledge it was just a really smart
nice helpful guy I would ask him a question like every morning okay and he
was like rattle off the code I mean people you know I love Jeff a lot
yeah I love Jeffrey Jeff was awesome there was also a lady Jeffrey was like a
little little bit more than me you know five or something years maybe you're
wherever but then there was a lady Brenda who worked there and she was like
twenty or twenty years older than me and she was she was just really nice she was
like she had some sons and I kind of felt like I you know I really she would
cut up an apple and should eat her Apple then I would go back there and I'd hang
out with her and she's just really cool but yes that was like the people I
worked with I mean I learned so much from that season at H&R Block sometimes
I think hey why don't I go back there now I'm not gonna say why don't I why
don't I continue to work there there are some things basically it goes to the
point of why I don't work anywhere else because I don't like to have my
mouthpiece muted by anybody I feel like I've been muted long enough by my own
action and like I will just say whatever and
then my boss will be like yo you can't say that I'm going to prefer you and I
just can't have that so that's basically why I don't work there I don't want to
ever say anything bad about anybody or any organizations that's not what I'm
about over here if I talk about somebody it's because the positive experience so
good thing that yeah I guess that I could talk about pretty much everything
from when I walked into the Community College to when I got my CPA license
because it was totally positive and I'm gonna talking about stuff before and
after if you want to hear more about H&R Block
like I said leave a comment or leave a comment and if you like this or not I
mainly just want to you know get how it's not success isn't just like you
know it's kind of like whitey Road and this and that and I'm just giving you my
story and I love doing this and this video is calling me today so I hope it
could help somebody tell next time deuces
