Have you ever wondered why small town finance jobs can sometimes be hilarious? 🤔 From demanding qualifications to unexpected layoffs, there seems to always be something in the water in these hamlets!
Let’s take a look at a recent experience shared by a user stuck in a small town with a population of 15k. They ended up taking a finance job at a uni, only to face layoffs shortly after due to their uni president getting into hot water. 🙈
Then, they moved on to a bookkeeping position that required even more qualifications and weekend work! 💼 But hey, at least the starting wage was slightly higher this time.
So, what do you think? Are small town finance jobs truly as amusing as they seem? Let’s discuss and share our own stories in the comments below! 🤣#ShareYourStory #FinanceHumor #CommunityEngagement
These postings are hilarious to me because it’s a guaranteed way to either make a bad hire or hire someone who leaves immediately. Anyone with those qualifications willing to accept such low wages is either (a) shit at their job and unable to get anything else or (b) only looking for something temporary while they find something better. Either way, they will have this same hiring problem in 12 months or less.
Yeah I agree. It’s crazy. However, a lot of jobs lost those requirements to deter people that may not be experienced. I just go ahead and apply and see. But the salary is not good
MBA, CPA, SQL for less than 50k? That’s gotta be a crime
COL is lower that’s about the only advantage
Wow. I don’t have these qualifications (other than the experience of which I have a lot more) and I am no where in this pay range. My starting wage almost 15 years ago was higher than this.
Out of pure curiosity, do you mind me asking which town is this? Which state/part of the country?
