A mate of mine was an accountant. He got a new job in a company. The previous accountant gave him the key to the bottom drawer of his desk.
He opened it and worked his way through the unpaid invoices. He toted up the assets, liabilities and projected revenue for the company. Day 3 of his employment, he approached the MD and said, "your company is insolvent". The MD said to my mate "you're fired".
A lesson in life.
