Karen from Finance: The "Premiere Corporate Queen of Melbourne"

Karen from Finance: The "Premiere Corporate Queen of Melbourne"

Karen from Finance

When in doubt, Australia’s reigning queen of tax puts it on the company card.

She may be the self-described "premiere corporate Queen of Melbourne" but Karen From Finance is fast on her way to taking on clients worldwide. Now, if she could only learn how to BCC...

Why isn't Karen From Finance on LinkedIn?
I got banned for trolling Amanda From Reception. I kept sending her fake emails pretending to be other employers to get her out of my office.

What's your policy on office romances?
I've never had one! And until I do have one, I feel like they should be forbidden to all! Especially Amanda.

You've been featured at RuPaul's Drag Con and Drag Fest tours. Which contestants did you love?
I have a soft spot for Tammie Brown, Detox, and Naomi Smalls. All those girls love a glass or two of champagne, and so do I!

Do you have strong opinions on CCing and BCCing?
Email isn't my forte. I thought BCC was a vitamin.

Heard any good gossip round the water cooler recently?
I heard that Amanda got caught stealing extra channels from Foxtel with a dodgy card and now she's in court. Apparently, she asked Deborah From HR for a raise, but Deborah told her that if she needed more cash, she should stop spending so much on crappy foundation.

Where do you see yourself in five years?
Still here. In exactly the same position I'm in now. Hopefully back in my own apartment, though, and not living with my sister.
