There are always consultants running around my company, and I’m totally fine to provide data to y’all. Audit is an absolutely necessary function & a difficult job, I get it.

Wish y’all would be a little nicer about it though… Condescension is unnecessary and it’s not a flex to talk down to me because you believe your top tier education gives you a free pass to do so.

We don’t all have the same access to education opportunities, and having a drawl =/= being dumb.
