true, but no one would think of them and art together.

Nope.. When I think of UT I think of lawyers...

lol...

I think of football players! XD

Well, yeah...that's where most of the booster $$ go for sure!

all I ever hear about that school is football!

That's their "claim to fame".

That and their lawyers...

My younger bro applied there. he wasn't accepted.

you ladies have been keeping this thread afloat!
i worked all day and then i ate a big sandwich, worked out, almost barfed, talked to my roomie who i barely ever see, showered and then updated all the things i needed to update on mene and now i'm pooped
hope you both had great days!

aw, linny has had a long day I see. you should go have a nice long sleep too.

I just finished the minimum amount of school work I can do, which means I'll have a lot to do tomorrow but... I am sleepy and long day of taxes. I don't feel like looking at more numbers >.>

Maybe your brother was too conservative for the extreme liberals at UT.

lol...

Hiya Linnie!

I'm glad I can just let my hubby do our taxes, Zeph.
He doesn't require me to help cuz I usually just say..."Let's take it to H&R Block!"

Well, I'm "trained by the IRS to prepare taxes!" Yay. So... 6 months of doing taxes for people! Ugh! I'm a combat medic... so not only can I save your life, I can do your taxes and also test you for drug use =.= Stupid Army. I just want to be a medic XD

Screw H&R block. They suck. Over priced =.=

So you prepare taxes for people overseas?

Yeah. That's what I'm doing. It blows. Especially when people owe money. Hard to break that news o.o

Is it part of your job in the service, or just something you do on the side for extra money?

It's part of my job cause the Army said it is. My job is what they say, no matter what I'm trained to do, so of course they train me to do this too, but it's still not my job. I wish I got paid for it... we offer a free service to service members, their family and anyone stationed here basically... even if they are civilians.

That's nice for them, but tough for you.

Is what it is. There's less drama there at least, compared to the clinic. It was awful there. IS awful there. I don't want to go back.

Hubby wondered if you get court martialed if you mess up somebody's taxes...

Nope, cause we're under the volunteer clause. Unless we do something away from work, or we KNOW that we are doing something wrong, then we get in trouble. For just plain stupid, we don't get in trouble.

lol...

Hubby said that now he knows who to ask when he does his taxes...

Haha! You're not gonna pull a fast one on me. We have the right to refuse to do anyone's taxes if we think that they might be lying or doing some sort of fraud *raises eyebrow*

Ours is so danged complicated.
He has all these spreadsheets and stuff...

Oh yeah? Rental properties and such? I think applying for ITIN's are annoying, also, some state returns are just a pain in the butt. Divedends, stocks, interest... gosh... so much...

We have some money in some funds, and you have to keep track of dividends and interest, and when something sells, you have to know what you bought it for...

It's not like we have a LOT of stuff there, but even a little bit makes for a lot of paperwork.
