I'm just a bookkeeper who still learns something new here and there. I'm
taking online accounting classes to brush up on my foundation skills because
I've found that years of using bookkeeping software have mostly eliminated
the need to think a transaction through vs just tabbing through a screen.

That situation may be worth a mention regarding the way programs like QB,
MYOB, Peachtree can create a false sense of bookkeeping know-how. People
with no bookkeeping background, who get their start in bookkeeping via
software, probably don't have a solid understanding of accounting
fundamentals because the software thinks for them.
