Work-Bike Balance

After seven years of chasing the "work-life" balance dragon in public accounting, I'm happy to report that I'm embarking on a new, attainable challenge at Target, my new employer: work-bike balance.

As you might recall, over a year ago I discussed the difficulties in biking more miles in a given week than hours worked for the same work.  I'm happy to report that things are looking good, even after two weeks on the job.

Hours worked: 45
Miles biked: 78.8

Of that total, about 50 of them were from commuting, and my new gig has a bike locker room and showers. And since I also found out that I can keep current on my CPEs, too, I will be able to keep my active CPA license, and thus, this blog.

No "Cycling Internal Auditor" then? I am glad the Cycling Public Accountant will live on, nonetheless. :)

A "Certified Internal Auditor" credential does exist, but until I have it, I don't want to imply that I have the designation.
