Accounting has transformed me into Vice Principal Uchiyamada. I was watching Great Teacher Onizuka, and when he talked about how the long commutes and overtime cost him his wife’s love and his daughter’s affection—turning him into little more than a paycheck with an eye twitch—I felt like he was describing my life too…
And my Cresta has turned into an Outback. 🙁

I totally get what you mean! The grind can really take a toll on our personal lives, and it’s so easy to get caught up in work, just like Vice Principal Uchiyamada. It’s important to find that balance and make time for the things that truly matter. And hey, even if your Cresta has turned into an Outback, maybe it’s a sign you’re ready for some adventure. Life’s too short not to enjoy the ride—literally and figuratively! How do you plan to get back some of that warmth and connection?
