First of all ophie, thanks for the book.
I intentionally never get involved in these type of discussions, but the situation demands that i should.
Are you serious ophie? And what's with this senior junior thing? You've been a member of this forum far too long not to understand that there arent any seniors and juniors on the board. And why in god's name do you want to have a "derh eent ki masjid" of your own? Pray tell us who would be part of such an exclusive group. I certainly wouldnt want to be one!
Everbody should understand that the ppl who are so concerned with this senior junior thingy are destroying the fabric and goes totally against the spirit of this forum. Yes, there are some oldies who try to showoff their so-called seniority which they ofcourse shouldnt, but there are also some juniors who are obsessed with becoming so-called seniors (you ppl all know what i am talking about).
You want to know why this forum was created?
It was created to end the communication gap which exists between the professionals (called seniors of the industry) and the students (juniors) which so horribly exists in the accountancy profession in our country. The artificial gap which exists today in our CA firms was created by some very insecure ppl who wanted to hold on to their managerships and partnerships and their so-called seniority, so that the juniors one day might not take over their petty positions.
If any of you are members of ICAP, you ppl all must know how hard it is to get your voice heard among the hallowed halls of ICAP and in among the firms. In this profession, one just can't say anything against their firms or against ICAP/ICMAP without losing their jobs/memberships. This forum was also created to provide a place where everbody can talk freely about issues concerning us all without losing our livelyhoods.
Now what purpose would a private area serve? Absolutely nothing!
Btw... whoever says that this forum is for professionals only or students only is dead wrong. Its for everybody... men and women, professional and student, accountant and non-accountant... EVERYBODY!
My advice to all, newbies and oldies, pros and students is to forget this senior-junior thing, help out everbody, give respect to everybody, so that you get respect and talk on whatever topic you like while remaining within the boundaries of decency.
nuff said!
