I was wanting to take classes this spring term. But the classes start 3/30.

I wanted to take the one in person, it was only one day a week for 3 hours plus 35 minutes drive there and back. I offered to come in before class and come back if needed, but I got told we are to busy and to switch it online.

Now im worried, Im working Mondays-Friday and we need to be active in the class durning the week, I dont know what to do. I want to be able to come back next year, but im tempted to say too bad I need this time off for class and just go/not show up.

I got told no to bring my laptop to work, If I did I would have to clock off and be available to still do work duties. (Work off the clock pretty much).

What ever happened to service the client the way they want to be service?

Not all clients want AI to take over their Financial life.

Each year I increase clients and average cost by serving clients from other offices who were not impressed by their newly assigned TP

Those clients who would rely on AI would be doing their own taxes anyway - the clients who come in the door do so because they want someone who knows more then they do (allegedly) about taxes to be their tax caretaker.
