, or else your books will be mush and you won’t have a business 18 months later
OP had this nasty fella of a client who one day was seen belittling his bookkeeper. It was the same girl who was often seen crying, working through lunch, being the last one to leave, stuff like that. What is more, she’d been on board for 5 years, never got a raise. Essentially, not a pretty sight. What OP did not know is why about 6 months after she had left her former employer—his client—he saw the client tank and new management was already there 18 months later. It’s as if a tornado came through. You’d think that the client just didn’t bother with accounting, but the game was much more real at that point.Only as she was about to retire did OP find out how the bookkeeper was subtly, yet systematically crippling the client’s business.
