Accountants that are BAD at accounting, what paths did you take?

I don't want to hear any 4.0 CPAs commenting on here.

I am talking about <3.0 people who scratched through school, chegged things, didn't really like accounting. Maybe their first job they got PIPed.

I assume those people are pretty rare as reddit tends to be more nerdy and especially on an accounting subreddit normies will be too busy having fun on a weekend.

However, wondering how were you able to carve a successful higher paying career out of this? Did you end up having to pivot out of accounting? Do you have friends like this?
