The ineptitude of the press these days breathtaking. A good bellwether of the general state of the upcoming generation. Raised without education, training, and any experience other than tapping a screen.

It's not ineptitude. They are not journalists, they are propagandists.

I suspect the author, Snejana Farberov, takes the bus or subway to work at the Post. Probably does not have a drivers license.

From the Google:

You made me respond, damn you…lol.

I work in the tax department of a real estate company. I’m probably the oldest employee there, at 68. The partnership/LLC returns are among the most complicated I’ve ever encountered.

A new accountant recently joined our department. Ok resume, Masters in Accounting from a state university. Last week, he asked me to review a check he was sending to a state revenue agency. I’ll just say it had to be his first attempt writing a check. For example, there was no decimal point after the dollar amount, and he endorsed the check on the back.

That, and other issues had me asking myself, “what are they teaching in schools today?”

The quality of work we’re getting from our CPA firms is no great shakes, either. I see it while preparing current year returns that they prepared last year.
