cpas: you need a vacation

cpas wish they were at the beach.

and if our straw poll means anything, it would be a beach in hawaii.

the statistical side of the survey showed most accountants and finance managers taking between two and four weeks off, with only 8 percent getting a week, and 9 percent getting more than five weeks.

still, 59 percent saw some of their hard-earned vacation days untaken, and 69 percent thought they deserved more vacation than they got. just over half said they could be tempted to take another job that offered more time off.
