I hate it when people do that. There's a reason why an owner says No. They're not doing it for shits and giggles. You'd have thought the bloke would have understood the safety of his kid might actually be at risk here.

Thanks Ticky! I probably identify more as a masc-presenting non-binary, at present. Working out your gender identity isn't always straightforward, I'm finding. Appreciate everyone's support <3

You legend RW!! Congrats on taking that step. It sounds like it's been a confusing, stressful journey but (even though we've never met) I'm proud of you mate!Thanks mate. I've been out of the Big 4 for almost a decade now, but if you can hold out for the CA then do that. I was pretty burnt out after getting mine, which is quite common actually, one of the partners I worked with (a really great guy) said it was not unusual for people to be 'stuffed' after finishing CA. I work as a sole practitioner now, I don't earn as much and I still get pretty busy at times (like now), but the stakes aren't as high, if that makes sense. Happy to chat further over PM, just might take my time in responding, as we are in the middle of tax season
As for living life as myself, I'm still not sure what that will look like, exactly! I put on various 'masks' over the years to hide it, for a while I bought into somewhat conservative views about gender and sexuality in an attempt to suppress it, even tried turning to religion in search of answers, so at the moment I'm just trying to re-connect with myself again before I decide on next steps. But appreciate the support
I'm a CA & a small business owner now (only 1 employee but growing)... I can guarantee you that the difference in stress/lifestyle makes up for the money Kennedy Parker. Don't let life/employer/CA take away the light in your life... It isn't life & death.

Is there a more glorious combo than Swans and Eels?
Add a sprinkle of Leeds United and a dash of MLB’s Guardians and it’s no wonder I like fishing so much

I’m a Seattle Mariners fan in the MLB.
We have never made the World Series and yesterday made the playoffs for the first time in 21 years with a 2 out walk off pinch hit home run in the bottom of the 9th inning (something that has never been done before). To put that into context I was a teenager when that drought started and I’m now in my 40’s as it ends. Doesn’t help that I keep on waiting for the SuperSonics to return to the NBA.

Thought I had a pretty good grasp of English… well, for a Year 9 dropout anyway, but hadn’t heard of a contronym…

How come you dropped out at year 9? If you are open to and comfortable with sharing? If not apologies for the question.

Obviously I wouldn’t wish it on anyone but the experiences my two younger brothers and I shared with other similarly displaced kids was quite unique.
We were probably very lucky to have had stable Primary years where we learned good from bad etc while some of the other kids weren’t so lucky.
Bros and I got into lots of mischief but nothing serious and, as young working adults, managed to build relatively normal lives, albeit lacking many life skills others take for granted.
