I had the pleasure of working with Joel Bock, who was recommended as an expert in estate and trust accounting. Having had the unfortunate duty to serve as a trustee to a departed family member, the accounting issues were something I did not look forward to. Joel was very understanding, calming, and professional. He explained everything to me and was very patient. In the future, I will be recommending Joel to friends and family who need a professional accountant who is qualified to handle specialized CPA work. He did a great job for the trust and was good to me personally. Great Job DPVB! And thank you.

For Partial Call Audio, you may listen here: https://tinyurl.com/philelps (Further Discussed Below)…read more This morning (7/19/2023), I woke up to three missed calls from Phillip. Unfortunately, I couldn't answer at the time, but when I called him back, he didn't answer my first attempt. However, he did pick up when I called him back on the second number, and we had a conversation that lasted for about 9 minutes. During our conversation, Phillip shared that he had just been released from the hospital and was dealing with a terminal medical condition (notably one of his earlier excuses was he "just got back in town". While that may be true if he was visiting a hospital "out of town", I don't know how true his claim are). While I tried to be understanding and sympathetic towards his situation, I must admit that I had been waiting for updates for 21 days only to receive excuses. Phillip's revelation about his health condition came across as an unexpected reason, and I couldn't help but feel uncertain about the credibility of his claim, given my prior experiences and the other reviews I've come across. Phillip also claimed that as a business owner myself, I shouldn't leave negative reviews for other companies in the same industry. I disagree with this assertion, as I hired him for a service, and my review is based on my customer experience. Additionally, I took measures to maintain anonymity by blacking out any references to my company in the screenshots I provided. I asked Phillip to update me ASAP, but he continued to give excuses instead. It started to escalate, and I informed him that I would be recording the call, to which he responded indifferently, saying he didn't care. Phillip continued on to ask me if either I or someone in my family had been affected by his medical condition in which I responded someone in my family has. He then states would I talk to them in the way I was talking to him? I did not talk to him any kind of way outside of the way he talked to me and even still I kept my boundaries (as you will see below and in the audio he blew his top) From there, the situation took a turn for the worse, as Phillip resorted to using profane, obscene, and disrespectful language, including calling me names such as "pussy," "bitch ass pussy," "ingenious," "manipulator," "coward," and more. He even went so far as to threaten to sue me if I didn't remove this review in 24 hours. He eventually hung up in my face. Similar to many experiences of others, he begun to victimize himself as if he is the one that deserves all of the sympathy. While Phillip's situation is very unfortunate (if it's actually true) and I do wish his recovery, treating others in the disrespectful and degrading tone and demeanor that Phillip exhibited is unwarranted. Phillip alleged numerous times he "knows all about me" and "has people all over this country" (to be honest I'm not sure what this actually means and if this is a threat or not). Overall this guy has bad business practices and when he is called out on it, he will make excuse after excuse to justify the unjustifiable and victimize himself seeking understanding with something that simply doesn't compute. "The math isn't math-ing," as many would say these days. Be careful when working with this company!

Functional: capable of operating; Ergonomics: human…read moreengineering; Functional Ergonomics is an organization who evaluates people for a company that is hiring said person. When you first enter their office which is located inside of the Brown Armstrong building all you see is 10 chairs and the front desk, you will also notice a room separator that provides privacy to the people performing the required tests requested by the hiring company. You are either approached by a well-dressed man or a lady dressed in scrubs, both play equal parts in the testing process. I recently visited and had paperwork which I provided as soon as I was greeted, then had to fill out a little more paperwork for my personal file with this organization. There was a few people in the back running their tests, the wait to be called was not bad, possibly 15 minutes, now of course that varies on how busy they are. Once called I was taken into a room that is almost like being at a doctor's office, they take your blood pressure, heartbeat (which they take randomly throughout the tests also), have you go through some range of motion tests and then you are done and move onto the next phase. The next phase is like a gym, depending on what your position of hire requires you will do different tests. There are treadmills, ladders, stair climbers, dumbbells, crates, shelves, exercise bikes, ropes, almost like a training area. As I stated previously, they do monitor your heartbeat to ensure you are capable of the test being ran on you. Between tests you are offered water as well, as well as cool down periods between tests. In my experience the staff were not super friendly but think about the service they are providing. They both were courteous but firm and they made conversation, just not the smiling and joking type, but again, the service they are providing is serious and pertains to your well-being and ability to perform the position for a company.
