Daily Mail:
In a 'loud and aggressive tirade' she then asked whether he thought her bra was appropriate and tried to show him her bra strap, an East London tribunal was told.

ACCA Code of Ethics anyone?

“Destiny is a gift. Some go their entire lives, living existences of quiet desperation, never learning the truth that what feels as though a burden pushing down upon their shoulders is really a sense of purpose that lifts us to greater heights. Never forget that fear is but the precursor to valor, that to strive and triumph in the face of fear is what it means to be a hero. Don’t think. Become.”
 

What accountants do you deal with? I know a lot of accountants (having accounting education myself), and most of them are alright.

Funniest

Here's what she did at KPMG... She must be great at introductions!

  • Introduced India Partner of the Ethereum Foundation to Head of Digital Village KPMG Singapore in 2017 after attending London FinTech Week 2017 on my own accord
  • Introduced top Japanese telecommunications firm contact with KPMG UK Japan Desk Director
  • Networked extensively internally within KPMG and externally, raising both my profile and KPMG UK LLP My current top viewed post is 15x of then number of followers. This is achieved within 6 months of joining LinkedIn.
 

My goodness this girl has the biggest balls. I'm kind of impressed that someone could even do this kind of stuff as an entry-level:

"She also refused to sit on the same floor as the rest of the Insurance team, commandeering a meeting room five floors below in which she installed a rice cooker."

 

Let this be a lesson to all the young people of America. When you have a fake job like HR or media then you can throw as many tantrums as you like, but when you are supposed to be making money (or assisting those making money) that stuff won't fly. Wealthy elites need to make their money first before virtue-signalling. She joined the wrong industry.

 

...um....She worked in the UK.

Also, I suggest you read the article. She was given more chances than I would think most companies would have given someone.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

There's a fair amount of these goobers in public accounting. Public accounting firms seem to be the one-stop-shop for people who graduated with an accounting degree and had no idea they would be doing accounting all day every day.

With that being said, why does the article label her a "trainee accountant" with three years of experience? That's senior accountant level tenure.

 

Might be that she is not yet chartered, that's why a "trainee accountant".

this article is the funniest thing I have read all lockdown They reprimand her for eating too much of staff food so she then shows up with plastic containers to take even more . A rice cooker? The bra strap. Calling a partner ‘the bald one’ even though she knew his name. I cannot stop laughing.

 

I mean, he 'mansplained' that jeans aren't appropriate work attire on weekdays. Is that really that bad? My boss once made fun of me for wearing a grey suit instead of charcoal when we had clients in the office and got rained on while going to the cocktail hour afterwards.

Just so you know, I did have an umbrella, but was nice enough to share it with HIS boss, who didn't.

I've found men to be better at explaining shit than women. Women try to make anything some personal anecdote. So I'll take mansplaining over womansplaining.
