She's gonna have to get a wider business card...
MLB took the fourth and final part of the Certified Management Accountant (CMA) exam this morning and she just called to report that she passed! She can now tack on "CMA" behind "MS" and "APA" on her business card.
Since it requires just one more exam and it's quite relevant to her job duties, she's contemplating studying for the Certified Financial Manager accreditation, after which, she claims, she plans on never learning another thing for the rest of her life.
As a prime example of a disciplined, intelligent, beautiful, and loving woman, look no further than MLB, CMA!
"Those Who Choose Never to Learn Another Thing"
I like that...it has a Monty Pythonesque ring to it! And I think she was ready to join the club a long time ago, but Sarbanes-Oxley reared its ugly head and...well, don't get me started. ;-)
I figured you might be able to relate to all of this.

Seriously, congrats on the new initials...

Posted by: Rach at February 17, 2006 11:09 PMDefinitely a good reason to celebrate with a trip to the Mac store!
I meant her, not you. :D

Posted by: Eric at February 18, 2006 09:40 AMMr. Freen, I don't know if I've ever publicized this, but we actually have a mixed marriage: I'm the Mac user, she's a Windows person.
Other than that, she's perfect! ;-)
Posted by: Eric at February 18, 2006 10:49 AMHi! I missed all the excitement, but a day later, please convey my utmost congratulations to your bride! What an accomplishment! Most people shiver with dread when they hear the dreaded acronym SOX - but not your proverbs 31 woman! Those who seek her wisdom will definitely benefit!

CONGRATULATIONS!! What an accredited woman! Won't the Master Font Geek be able to find a font small enough to fit all this onto a standard sized card? I've already joined the club of "Those Who Choose Never to Learn Another Thing" (that's TWCNtLAT for the business card). Let me know when MLB is ready to join. ;-)
