sorry to be blunt, but a 51-year-old accountant struggling to manage even one staff member may lack the necessary skills and emotional intelligence required for effective people management. these attributes are critical for the position you may aspiring to. it might be more suitable to focus on roles that primarily involve working with data and numbers.

looking back at my reply, i realize it might have come across harsher than i intended—my bad. i don’t see myself as better than you or anyone else. i’ve just been fortunate to work under someone who recognized my strengths and weaknesses, which allowed me to settle into a comfy role where i can be relatively productive with minimal interaction with the rest of the team.
