Apparently #bookkeepers have a high rate of instability. For the fourth time, I'm now looking for a new bookkeeper because the current one just disappeared. - stopped answering phone calls, turned off voice mail, no response to email, office locked every time I go by. Haven't been able to contact them in over a month.
Once I had a bookkeeper literally leave the country without notice. Disappeared with all of my paperwork for four months without a word. A few years later had the audacity to ask me for a recommendation online. Uh, no.
This behavior is the opposite of what I think of when I think of accountants/actuaries/bookkeepers. My mom was a bookkeeper, and the most stable, reliable person I ever knew. But I have seen this pattern a *lot* over the past 20 years - enough to know it's not a rare aberration.
