First time at EP. I see that the Gardai have released the map of the site. I'm staying in Moonlight Meadows and it looks like I should be parking in the red car park, to get in through the Pudo/Railway gate. Does anyone know if access this through Stradbally via Athy side, or do I come in from the Portlaoise side? Unsure of what the road closures are normally like. Thanks.
Hi,
Recently sat my FAE elective and felt it went well, so I'm hoping I'm qualified now. I've been in public accounting for nearly 8 years now. Worked between two jobs, and in the current one 5 years. Both jobs put me through ATI and CAI. I'm currently on 47k salary, and the partner told me I can expect a decent jump in pay once I've qualified.
Over the past few months, I've been considering what to do after I qualify. In the job, it's become quite busy. Some senior staff have retired in recent years, and I feel I'm up to my neck with work. Coming into December year ends and income tax season now, so can expect a lot of late evenings for the next few months. My question is should I consider leaving in the new year, and look at getting into industry. I've also been thinking about going into business with a friend, which would be nothing to do with accounting (it's a coffee truck for event hire, he has an existing business so it wouldn't be a total shot in the dark). I'd work at that, do the books, and perhaps keep some bookkeeping on the side - my existing job might outsource some of their management accounts to me, as they have done this with other staff who have left.
Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks.
