Yep there are a few very specific spots for us. I was a tax accountant for a while, but now I work as a senior retail accountant for a fairly large refining/gas station company known down here as "Mapco" I enjoy it, and nowhere near as stressful as doing public accounting either

There are tons of different jobs roles in the accounting world. Some of them are very specialized. Some of them are very broad.

Pro Tip: Unless an accountant/CPA specifically says they are a tax accountant/preparer, they probably hate doing taxes.

See my Pro Tip above! I hate doing taxes. I hate reading tax code even more. Once I finish the CPA exams and get licensed, I have a feeling my response to people when they ask what I do will be be "I am a CPA, no I don't do taxes."

Pretty much every accountant I know uses Turbo Tax to do their taxes...even if they prepare taxes for a living.
