Tax season is an accountant's bread and butter but it can also be incredibly stressful. Juggling numerous deadlines and keeping all your clients happy is a tough balancing act. At YouCanBookMe we understand the importance of managing your precious time all too well.
We know this time of year can grind you down. Stress is no joke. According to a FloQast & University of Georgia (UGA) survey, 99% of accountants experience burnout. Those are some serious numbers. Sometimes all you can do is laugh. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of 20 funny tax season memes that will have accountants chuckling into their coffee.
Let’s jump right in!
Tax season is, above all, a race against time. No matter how prepared you are, there always seems to be more to do than hours in the day.
It can be difficult to watch the world go by when you're in the tax season trenches. But sure as the sun rises, April 15th will come. Eventually.
Whether it’s your first time or your tenth time, tax season can have you looking a little like this. At least with YouCanBookMe, you don’t have to manually schedule your client meetings.
Our online scheduling tool is designed to save you time by letting clients book appointments directly on your customized booking page. It eliminates back-and-forth scheduling, automates reminders, and integrates seamlessly with your favorite tools to streamline your business operations.
Every year you say you’re going to get started as soon as possible, but it’s easier said than done. Some of us just need the adrenaline of a fast-approaching deadline to get us going.
Other people actually enjoy spring? What a concept. At least other accountants know what you’re going through…
Tax season means chasing pieces of paper, clients, deductions, and returns. That’s a lot to keep track of. That's why you should use a tool like YouCanBookMe to manage your client meetings!
Dealing with clients is often the trickiest part of your job. Especially if you have lots of them with widely varying needs. Things can get complicated super fast. Hopefully, you can take some comfort in the fact we all seem to have the same client issues.
Even after onboarding your clients and clearly explaining your expectations—such as providing all relevant documents before the annual tax filings—you might still face delays in receiving what you need.
It’s a familiar scenario: when clients need something, it’s urgent. But when you need something from them, it feels like an endless wait. Are they using carrier pigeons or shipping their receipts on a century-old ocean liner?
We all know that accountants are kind of like magicians, but there are some miracles you just can’t perform. Managing client expectations is part of the job. All you can do is be clear about your deadlines. ‘As per my previous email…’
