Luckily, I was always paid for my overtime. In public accounting, it depends on the firm and your job in the firm... you either get 1.5 times pay or banked time to be used to day days off in times other than tax season. I never worked overtime without pay... it was totally worth it to get me where I am today.Besides, I was living in the midwest for two years... it's so damn cold there during tax season, I'd rather work than sit at home and do nothing.
All I know is I'm happy where I am. Happy with my place in life, not being married or a mom at 29 cause it's just not what I wanted. I have a fabulous bf, a great job and home and life is very good. I hope that everyone else finds happiness whether it's at home, at work, with a family or without.
