Find a non-traveling SO. Otherwise it is unfair to the pet.

@Acc2 - I think that's called a baby and usually takes about 15+ years before you can leave them home alone for days at a time.

I would recommend getting an older pet. Puppies are tough and need a ton of attention and care for the first few months. I was lucky enough to be local when I got my puppy so I was able to potty train and do obedience training

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
