Good afternoon everyone, trust we are enjoying our weekend. This is a very thought provoking contest about the job we do for a living and i want to appreciate @humaidi for organising such a contest.

My name is Ebube Ruth and i am a Nigerian. I am an accountant by profession and i work as an accountant in a private car Hire company located in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. I have worked here for more than 3 years. I love my job so much because it has helped to improve many areas of my life such as accuracy, speed and also being able to work and deliver under pressure.

Firstly, an accountant is a professional whose job in an organisation is to take financial records to help in the growth of the company.

Like i said earlier, i am an accountant by profession. I work with a car hire company and my job description entails helping my company keep their financial records and present the summary of the record fourth nightly in order to be looked in to to make necessary adjustments where possible. I also track the company's monthly expenses ranging from car repairs, amount of fuel consumes in a month and also our new clients. I also help in preparing the tax returns of my company and ensures that taxes are paid on time. I also help my company in analysing financial operations so as to suggest best-practices, identify issues and proffer solutions. This in turn helps my company to run efficiently because of the various advises on cost reduction and ways of enhancing revenue.

The importance of this my work in my life cannot be over emphasized because it helps me to be busy always. By dealing with data, it has helped me to ensure accuracy in all i do within and outside of the office. It has also helped me in making informed decisions about my finances and has also helped me to know how to minimise loses and track my income and expenses accurately. It has also helped to improve my savings. Another importance of thus job is that through it, i have been able to meet with important people's and make several connections and it has also helped to broaden my scope in life and to see life from a different perspective from what i used to know.

I would like to take this job very far because its my passion. Although i didn't study accounting as my first degree, but i have come into this field to stay. I want to take thud job very far because its already my profession. Last year, i acquired a professional certificate (ICAN) in this field and i am now a Chattered accountant. There are also other professional bodies that award certificates to accountants, so i would also like to take part in them too to ensure steady promotions and hitch free ride in this field. In some years to come, i plan on having my own accounting firm too.

Success is relative and it can be measure by how far an individual has attained a specific goal set by him/her. So, i can say that this job can bring so many successes in my life by helping me come in contact with some well meaning individuals who will me in my career path. It can also ensure success in my life by making me financially independent because prior to this job, i was unemployed and was always idle without any source of income. It can also bring success in my life by giving me insights to nee opportunities and also new investments. It can also bring success in my life by helping me make crucial and better decision about my life.
