— ‘Follow Your Dreams’ and Other Terrible Career Advice. Want to make a strong professional start? Be open to every opportunity and embrace the lowliest tasks. – Bonnie Hammer (COMMENT: After you earned your bachelor’s degree, what was the lowliest task that your boss gave you? In 1971, when I was 22 years old, when I was in my 7th month as the Retail Sales Manager in the Chicago Heights Firestone Store, while the store was open, my boss had me get on a ladder and clean the white walls on moldy tires that had been hanging on the walls of the showroom for many years. That was too much for me. I politely gave him my 2-week notice that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. He immediately rudely/threadedly fired me. But then, Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Previously, my Firestone Store boss had me pump gasoline, mount, balance, and install tires, change engine oil and filters, remove and install batteries, deliver major appliances, etc. He did not approve of my demographics including my being a draft-avoider, college graduate, conservative, Republican, Protestant, German American, Crete resident, and my ancestors had been in America since 1844. He had not hired me, the Firestone district office had hired me and assigned me to his store. He refused to let me start in his store until I passed a 2-week probationary period in Firestone’s Gary Indiana store. What little understanding/tolerance/sympathy he had for me was because a) I had worked my way through college and b) my father had died suddenly in October of 1969 and I was living with and helping support my mother and brother because of that.)

That means those states are losing jobs in other industries. Illinois has added about 52,000 jobs in government, healthcare and social assistance over the last year—about double the number of its overall new jobs.)
INSIDE PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
— Public accounting had absolutely no interest in me even though a) I had passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, b) I had become a licensed CPA, c) I had earned four other job-related professional certifications, d) I had earned master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance, e) I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year, and f) I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year a) because I was “too old” (30) when I passed the CPA examination and b) because I am not minority, female, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.
