IMAGE OF CAS as perceived by others

CA Vishal (CA working in industry) (620 Points)

06 August 2010  

I  just want to share that this is the feedback that I have received from people working in other  function heads ie from HR, sales, IT that  CAs as very dull, boring and non creative person .  The image is that CA are always occupied with themselves , never crack jokes, Are always serious . They dont know what is happening in the world apart from subjects that are part of there syllabus. They do not have any personal or social life. They always sound stressed and tense.

Just wanted to Know is this drawback of our profession ? or  we have actually become like this by always been involved in numbers etc
