It’s only two weeks, what could possibly go wrong?
The Holiday Saga!
When the Client Account Manager is out of office: are your accounts out of control?
Relatable? There is a better way…
The Holiday season is upon us!
That sacred time when someone decides to “find themselves” in Bali, sip cocktails in Santorini, or - let’s be honest - just lie face down on a sun lounger questioning their life choices.
But what about those left behind?
Welcome to: Survivor: Office Edition - The Annual Leave Chronicles.
Phase 1: The “How Hard Can It Be?” Delusion
The moment the holiday request lands, you know what’s coming:
Your No.1 accounts person is OUT.
And somehow… you’re IN.
Bravely, you step up. How hard can it really be?
Spoiler: Surprisingly hard.
While your colleague is bouncing around the deep blue sea on a jet-ski, you’re bouncing between systems like a caffeinated squirrel. And Landlords and Contractors want paying.
You’ve got three monitors, 54 browser tabs open, and not one is playing music, because frankly, you can’t handle the distraction.
The banking app has logged you out… again.
The printer’s flashing a warning.
The phones are ringing and you’re got that sinking feeling.
…and the annual disruption is upon us!
Phase 2: The “It’ll Be Fine” Fantasy
You read the handover email again (all 836 words of it) and think:
“I’ve got this!”
And then you find yourself:
Hey Siri: “What is a client account?”
Clicking through statements, frantically before you get timed out again
Stalked by a dozen landlords and contracts who want paying… NOW!
Phase 3: The Money Maze
Deposits, fees, commissions… none of it adds up. Literally
…and Landlords and Contractors still want paying
The numbers on the system don’t match the numbers on the bank statement
Which don’t match the numbers in your CRM, which don’t match reality.
The next thought / search requests leaves your lips -
Hey Siri, what’s the law around a “No Holidays” clause in the client accountant’s contract?
You’ll get it done, but at what cost?
Does it affect who can go away and for how long?
But wait - There is a better way!
