I’ve heard that companies have started releasing dates for their offices to open back up. When is everyone leaving the WFH life?

Our client never stopped showing up to the office, and he‘s demanding 50% attendance rate of us since mid April. Completely nuts if you ask me, but our business relies on this client so we play along.

Yes we‘re told the client „highly appreciates our physical presence“ but we’re not forced to go there and HO is still allowed. Tbh I can understand our Management, it’s just a d*ck move from the client in my humble opinion.

I traveled to meet in person while socially distancing with a client last week. New relationship, beat out the incumbent and are finalizing a 7 figure deal. Stay home as long as you’d like....

Any thoughts around how to use M&A tax skills for the better good? I’m a CPA and originally got into this for a stable / interesting job, but in the long-term I’d like to do something that either influences drafting of tax legislation or helps the public (however naive that may sound). Perhaps I’ve gotten too introspective during the pandemic. Don’t really want to go back for a JD and aside from keeping a roof over my head I’m not very motivated by money. Anyone else have similar ideas?
