Di January...

I've mention "peak season" on my last post. some people might not know what is peak season mean by an auditor.

peak season is when auditor fight to collect as many as evidence in a very short time (2-3 weeks) to prove that all accounting matter was recorded properly without making user of financial report got confuse and make a wrong strategic decision for the company. this usually happen on Dec-Feb.

on December to the very first week of the years, we were busy stock taking our clients inventory, that's why on 31 Dec 2013, I went to Bogor, choosing sample and start counting plastic bottles. why on 2 Jan 2014, I went to Palu and on the next morning I should start counting fertilizers.
by the way, Palu is beautiful. even when I was in the middle of the city, I can see the clear sea and some fish swimming.

@Swiss-Belhotel Silae Palu

I've spent one night in the city. Young people gather on the beach on saturday night eating pisang stick and a traditional Palu's drink which I forgot the name (sorry...)
I also have the opportunity the new image of Hassanudin Airport (which I am over-excited about).

@Sultan Hassanuddin Int Airport

My grandmother was visiting me there. Thank God I was chosen to go to Palu so I can met her. :)
The thing that makes me moooore excited about is the MONEY!! yep I can make more money when I go to different city especially when it was WEEKEND! why? because the more time I spent for weekend-work-travelling, the more firm paid me. kekekekekek
let's taking a break....

Well, you just read the exciting part of being an auditor when it comes to "peak season". let's start to talk about "the reality"....
I went to Palu on Thursday at dawn, I just arrive to my mess at 9pm. the next day I have to wake up early because the electricity got cut to cooling down the diesel engine (since PLN (State Power Company) is not reaching this area). I started my work after breakfast on 8am and done my work at 5pm. On Saturday, I do the same thing as Friday but what I did that day was to negotiate and making my stocktake report together with the Clients. I also get back to Palu on this day. I went to the Airport on 3pm on Sunday, and on 1am I just stepped on my front yard in Jakarta.
on Monday, I take half-day sick leave so that I can went work after lunch and I came back to home on 7pm.
the next day was coming.. I never sleep before 1am after that even on weekend. We did working on weekend. non-stop! yeah, I live like a robot for 3 weeks.

THE PEAK WAS ON THIS DAY--------->

when I touch down my bed on 3.30 and woke up at 8. :'(





3 of my peers resign on this peak season, 2 of them are my very best friend, we are like geng in the high school. always together. I wish them the best sincerely.. :(


I can't even celebrate by birthday properly... :'(
Alhamdulillah I still can met my my boyfriend on that day, and I still have my super friend who congratulate me 

but now peak season is passed, I passed it ALIVE with "no exception noted" marked. hehehehe


You know, it's very rare for me to write a Full-English post. I'm so sorry if my english is lacking. I just have the feeling that you'll know what this post is about. 

First year auditor

barang macam apa auditor itu??
itu loh orang yang kerjaannya meriksa-meriksain kerjaan orang...
mastiin catatan akuntansi perusahaan itu akuntable. datanya reliable buat pemilik, masyarakat, dan pihak-pihak yang berkepentingan.
gunanya auditor ya itu. memberikan comfort untuk pihak lain yang berkepentingan sama catatan akuntansi pihak pertama. kedengarnya sih keren ya... tapi coba tanya kerjanya ngapain dooong?

first year auditor ya gitu deh kerjaannya. minta-mintain data, vouching (nyocokin deret transaksi yang ada ke bukti pendukung karena setiap transaksi pasti ada dasar pencatatannya, kalau ga ada ya ga bisa dianggap sebagai transaksi gitu...), ngerjain printilan-printilan yang harus selalu ada dalam audit. macam lipet-lipetin bank confirmation, beres-beresin file penting dan mastiin file itu ada di datebase.

diawal gue mengeluti profesi ini, gue kayanya ga punya rasa percaya diri. gue banyak bgt salah! ga penting lo secerdas apa, kerja nyata itu ga cuma asal pake otak tp jg banyak faktor yang bisa buat lo outstanding atau malah huuuuu~~
ya, 2-3 bulan pertama gue ngerasa huuuu bgt, tp setelah melewati final audit, gue merasa baik-baik aja. bukan berarti gue selamanya akan mengeluti profesi ini, hanya saja, gue merasa termotivasi karana gue merasa bisa. :D
