Why do you take it so personally when people say that audit is not for them? Very odd leh.

Do you feel personally attacked? Does it shatter your worldview or belief system? Did you construct your entire life's identity around being an auditor?

If not, why does it bother you if people start detesting audit? If you love the profession so much, good for you, happy for you. But why do you care so much about what other people do or think?

It's pretty clear audit (as a profession) has many many flaws and negative points, otherwise we wouldn't be having a close to 2k reply thread here consisting of people mainly complaining about it. These are all fair perspectives to be debated and discussed.

Interesting assumptions, but this isn’t about feeling attacked or constructing my identity around audit. It’s about calling out the overused and insincere excuse that 'audit isn’t for me' after years in the field. If you are leaving, at least have a well thought out reason rather than defaulting to a vague misfit claim. If this doesn’t sit well with you, feel free to scroll past.

You thought you can stay in audit but suddenly you cannot manage your family commitments with audit together and your mental health is deteriorating. You need a better work life. Sounds perfectly fine to me. Very honest here…

Lol. If that’s how you define honesty, then sure, call it what you want.

But just make sure your next "discovery" doesn’t end up being another convenient excuse to dodge your accountability.

signs of a deluded person thinking that other people actually owe him an explanation. some weird complex as if other people have to explain to you everything. I can quit because I woke up and felt like it for all I care, who tf are you to demand a reason

You missed the point. It’s not about demanding explanations, just pointing out the difference between making a thoughtful decision and hiding behind a vague excuse. If someone’s been in audit for years and suddenly wakes up one day and quits without much thought, it almost seems like they are avoiding some real self-reflection. Then again, maybe it's easier for some to move on without questioning their own choices.

Not really sure how to pick up social skills, but it’s easier for me to that with you an internet stranger than people in real life…

Probably the same for many of you here too?

you also missed the point. why must people tell you their honest reason? They can tell you anything. they can tell you they quit because their lunch was cold. What has it got to do with you?

with your kind of attitude doubtful anyone would even put in 5% of their effort to explain anything to you

Audit sucks. Useless job no value. Copy and paste. Guess people want easy job. Easy money
