Full time bookkeeper has...rusty record keeping skill?
« on: March 30, 2012, 12:18:04 pm »

As the subject line says...

My full time bookkeeper, with office and highest precision......has "v rusty" record keeping?

Is this related to the new "powers of telepathic book keeping" that I've heard mentioned in conversation on threads in here?

My z-screen seems to be good and accurate so it isn't hurting us any!  Just seems weird when I (v)iew him and he's got v rusty record keeping!

I get "updating records" from time to time, so it's not just once. But that's a bit strange. Was he very rusty to begin with?

Sounds like he got so good that he updated all the records for the rest of history so there hasn't been need for bookkeeping anymore. It's quite common, although I haven't noticed them actually getting rusty before.
