haha, few things from my experience:

1)its terrifying how many people in c-suite roles (including purported CFOs and CEOs), and commercial/sales/product development roles don't actually understand accounting and finance basics.

2) the number of bookkeepers that pretend to be real accountants, but really they are just power users of a given accounting system

3) the massive miscommunication that takes place when two people that don't know what they are talking about try to tell the other what to do.
