Microsoft Audit
-
Yeah, I would just turn them down. That simple. This onus is on them for them. They want to bill for it, too bad. Not how it works. You can't just bill someone for something they didn't agree to. Otherwise I'd bill every company in the world for IT consulting, even if they don't know who we are.

That's what I'd do as well. Oh you asked a question on a public forum, here's your $300 bill.
Pay me.

Seems the rep wasn't used to the Deloitte audit. Microsoft is suppose to pay Deloitte. But yes they will still be doing onsite visits and we will be required to either give them access to everything or login ourselves to show them.

Now that sounds more like the standard hassle.

Haha it was more like $300,000. And it's a 6month process for us.
-
@Jason But if I could get $300,000 out of every random person on the internet I wouldn't still be working.
So I gotta try for the smaller sums they might just pay to go away.
Duh!
-
@Jason where can I send the invoice?
-
Whoa whoa whoa. I already have student loans guys. How much does my generation need to get hammered? Good grief.
-
@wirestyle22 until you're bleeding so profusely that your blood turns into money in my pocket?

Yeah I've done them many times before. Never had one with onsite visits to each location and take 6 months though

Let's not get started on the Your vs My generation... They've already raised the retirement age a since I entered work force in 1987 - And I'm already looking at working till I"m 80 or die - whichever comes first.
-
What is this madness? This is wrong on multiple levels.

Is that because you're not putting enough away for retirement?

Yeah really even for full SS benefit the Age is 67 for the youngest I believe.
-
I can't speak for anyone else here, but I'm not counting on SS for retirement.

Why do you have student loans? No need for that, that's purely optional. The biggest problem with the younger generation is the new mantra of "we have to go to college" even though no generation has ever had less need to go. Unlike every previous generation whose professional knowledge was locked up in guilds and universities, this current generation is the first to have universal access to the knowledge we all were forced to go to college to get. Your generation is the first to have almost zero reason to ever have student loans. That's not something that you can complain about. The "requirement" to go to college was orders of magnitude greater one or two generations ago and wasn't a requirement then, either.

Yeah, OUR generation is paying for the baby boomers. Unlikely that anyone will get screwed like us. We didn't get the boom years, and we get the penalty for the boom years. We got sandwiched between successful generations and are stuck footing the bills for everyone.

I'm confident that you can count on SS, but you can't count on it for retirement. It's been decades since SS was enough for anyone to retire on. It's just an extra "boost" for people at that point.

I wonder, I do not have proof, only what is rumored and suggested,.. that if a politically unstable topic or three were dealt with - if it would not be better. But the system is being bleed for multiple points.
