About to have a tv show based on the company as well, which will be a cross between hunting/fishing like Duck Dynasty and Counts Custom or the like where you do customizations of firearms instead of cars, etc.

Haha! I forget we have old blood here still. I haven’t since Covid, but I actually just booked a show in Bossier in June and one coming up in Dallas. Not nearly as much as I use to, but still occasionally.

It has it's ebbs and flows.

Prayers your way at this trying time of year.

Did Audit for 4 years, got out to do IT for a little bit, and now jumping back in to do Advisory/Consulting.

I'm really happy where I'm at now. It's very busy, but it's not 'take your life away' busy. The people I work with are all about family first, work-life balance, etc.

I was in Big 4 for 2 years before this, and it nearly broke me. It's great for single folks right out of college to get that stamp on your resume then move on, but to make a career out of it takes a special kind of person

I feel ya. Burn and churn got me after I made Senior at a B4

Looking forward to my next career, whatever that may be.

My son on the Autism Spectrum went through the SC Voc Rehab program in Rock Hill. Much respect for the amazing under-appreciated support y'all provide.

I forget the exact number, but it was a super low percentage of 1st year seniors ever make it to manager (usually a 3 year period).

I saw one of my buddies (he was a 1st year senior) towards the end of busy season a few years ago and I'm not exaggerating when I say he looked like he had been through hell and back. Dark circles, thousand yard stare, etc. and when I said hey to him, all he said back was '84 hours. 84 hours for 6 straight weeks. How is that possible.' He left a few weeks later.

That’s my experience. Was averaging 87 for 2 straight months last year.

I'm a proposal writer for a large software company. I've been doing that for almost 6 years. 100% remote, work from home. I haven't seen a co-worker in person since October of 2016.

Prior to that, I did similar stuff for 2 aerospace companies and 1 defense company.

Worked for a big 4 for fours years. Left when my almost 2 year old (at the time) was calling the telephone “daddy” because that was the vast majority of our interaction. I learned a lot and got some great experience (worked on the XM Radio IPO). Been working for federal Office of Inspector General doing performance audits since.

Financial Advisor for 31 years and counting.

Retired, logistics and transportation.

I'm a VP for a mid-sized rental drilling tool company currently living in West Texas. Plan to retire this August and move back to the Hub City. I started in the oil patch in 81 at 25.

Moved overseas in 89 with my wife and 3 kids, aged 1,2, and 3. We figured it out after the third child was born. We went overseas to pay off debt on a house from the 86 oil bust. We ended up staying 20 years, living in 7 different countries. Missed a lot things back home while gone, but we made so many friends and saw so many things we never dreamed of; we would do it all again.
