Hello, my friends. This is Fun Employment Radio. I am Sarah, as you can tell, I'm not Greg.

Greg isn't here right now, but we wanted to give an intro to this very special episode that we have.

So we do this once a year with one of our most delightful guests. And yes, I'm talking about Gilbert Gleason from Block Advisors.

You know, it's getting to be tax time and taxes are depressing, so why not make them less so by having someone who's a professional and nice and helpful, you know, assist you in getting something done that you have to do anyway. So give Gilbert a call and see if you can make your tax streams come true. That's not even a thing. I don't know why I said

that, but Gilbert maybe could do that. If anyone could, it's him. So Gilbert Gleason from Block Advisors,

you can find him at 503-233-0447 and let him know that you heard about him from us and he'll be

able to squeeze you in, most likely. So anyway, we had to talk with him today

as we do every year, actually a few days ago. But here it is. We kind of just launch into it. So

this is Greg and I speaking with Gilbert Gleason from Block Advisors on Fun Employment Radio.

The problem I have is people walk off with my pens. With your pens? People like, I like this pen. People like these pens and they'll just... It's probably nice pens. They're really nice. I mean, it's not fancy, it's just... The tax pants, though. But when you find a good pen. Yeah. I mean, I wouldn't still, you have another one in there in your pocket too. Yeah, I keep them. Anyway, number one, don't steal the pens. Don't steal. I know, right? When you come to physical, we don't steal. We have one guy comes in. He says, I like your pen, man, I like, I said, okay, you can have it. So the next time he comes in, I says, don't you touch my band.

Just hide all of the pets. You already got one. You remember, don't you? You know, it's a great tax consultation is if you have to hide all of your stuff. That's right. That's right. That's right. Well, Gilbert, how are you? You're a friend that we don't get to see very much. We always love you.

Once a year.

Yep.

And that's, you know, that's the way I feel with my tax clients.

I see them Once a year. Yep.

And that's, you know, that's the way I feel with my tax clients. I see them once a year and we feel like family. Yes. Because we get together, we talk about things. I shouldn't say this. I know more things about them than their closest friends do and their family do. Oh, yeah. I know much they make and I know how much they give and I know which is in a bank account. But, and I'm very confidential, by the way. Yes, he is. Yes. But, you know, it's like a annual tune-up where we just get to Sedanum and Jakarta. I love that. Yeah. I have people. I followed them from when they bought their first home, when they got their first child.

Their child is now going to college and I'm going, what?

Yeah. So it's fun.

It feels like that's my favorite part of the job.

I have very good coworkers here. I love that.

But my clients, that's why I'm here. Yeah. Well, I mean, that's that it does feel like family. Yeah. It does. You know, every time, every year we come in here. We're asking about the kids. And that's why I like it. Um, and you make it not scary, which is what we always talk about.

Because tax, you know, there's lots of stressors and tax season, it can be very stressful.
