Just curious, what services are offered from Deloitte and EY that enables you to be based out of San Diego?

Our people just say they are in LA and then live in SD or Orange County. If there's a counseling family meeting they fly into LA if they actually need to be there (2x per year maybe?) and then drive down or take the train. I asked the question about SM because if the bench is deep they have made seniors and staff come into the office and literally take attendance so it's easier to pull stuff like this when you are higher up.

Do you travel west coast, central, or east?

@op, even split between central and east

Thanks! So you find there are enough direct flights to not make life more miserable? :)

^are you an SM?

I second PwC's question
