My husband and I met at a Big 4 firm and now have a newborn. Not only does he have the curse of 2 accountant parents, but I was studying for the CPA the entire time I was pregnant, so he heard about 9 months of Becker lectures. I’m very worried we’ll have another CPA on our hands – uh oh!

Got to watch out for dating colleagues – it can only lead to problems when you get found out or when you break up!

If you date accountants at other firms this may work better though, as both being accountants you would likely have a lot in common and tend to think the same way in many cases.

We had a term for this on my team at KPMG. It started when everything at KPMG are named with a K, like KRisk, KRoam, etc. We called it KLove. I was it was really fitting!

Did anyone figure out how the people in the picture are “standing”. Which way are they facing? Hint: Are you seeing two left hands?

Anyway, I would rather not date an accountant. Sometimes I just think it is best to leave work at work. If there are two accountants in the house, chances of leaving work at work are close to zero!

To Laurel: There are SOOO many accounting girls with military men!! I, myself am one, and my best friend (whom I met during my internship at the firm we both now work at) married a Marine!

Also, I think the official tally of couples who have met, dated, and gotten married at our firm is around 10, and we’re a regional firm with only 300 employees.

It’s just like being at the zoo. If they want two animals to mate, they lock them in a cage together. At least for auditors, this is pretty much the same thing. Except that if a female turns me down in the audit room, I will get in trouble if I bite her throat.

I agree with Jessica. I may have eye-humped every woman in my office, but at the end of the day, I couldn’t stand the thought of describing broken controls or screwy clients to an accountant in bed. Ew.
