Over the years accountants have been stereotyped as being boring, balding, and out-of-shape. Try visualizing an accountant in your head and you will most likely visualize someone like Kevin Malone from the T.V. Show “The Office.”

The author of this article is in the church accounting software industry. Below are ten jokes that the author has accumulated over the years about church accountants. These jokes could be applied to accountants in general.

Question: Is there a difference between a church accountant and a lawyer? Answer: Yes, the church accountant realizes he is boring. The technical issues of accounting can be a little dry to the unshaped mind.

Question: How was copper wire invented? Answer: Two accountants at church argued over the widow’s mite.

Question: How do you know an extroverted accountant when you see one? Answer: The accountant will be looking at your shoes while she is talking to you. Most accountants look at their own shoes. If you are a church accountant, you just have to laugh at how you’ve been stereotyped.

Question: Why do the accountant at church cross the road? Answer: Because he didn’t know what else to do, so he looked at last year’s file and that is what they did last year. If you’ve ever done any auditing, you’ll find this joke entertaining.

A tax season joke. A church accounting is lying on his deathbed talking with a dear friend. Before the accounting dies, he gives his friend a letter and tells him to send the letter to the IRS. The friend reads the letter before delivering it, and the letter says, “Now you finally have everything.”

Well hopefully now you have some jokes to tell to your fellow church accountants. It’s healthy to laugh at the stereotypes of one’s profession.
