It's Friday and you've all checked out so let's get right to the baseless and ridiculous, starting with Deloitte trying to get whiter and manlier:
Deloitte bet too heavy on JPMC project. Using it as an excuse to force people out. Disproportionate number of women and minorities going.
Speaking of Deloitte, they managed to find the most anxious recruit in the country:
I accepted an offer from Deloitte back in November, but, as of now, I don't have a start date. I emailed the recruiter back in March to check in and she said they had not finalized start dates at that time. Should I be concerned?
I'm pretty sure the recruiter hates you.
Here's some competitivce poaching news that is a little light on details:
3 GT Fed partners bolted to EY Fed practice.
Thanks. And thanks for leaving us an email address. We're not interested in things like names or locations anyway.

Here's an article suggestion if you can make sense of it:
am not sure how many are interested as to why/when an accounting firm determines its best to part ways with its own CFO. Do the personal items on the expense reports matter? How about the personal charges on payables? the inexplicable lack of control of its own cash accounts? Does a firm do what they advise their clients, or do they part ways and term it merely a 'performance problem'? In other words, does an accounting firm drink the kool-aid that they sell to clients, or do something different? 'could be an interesting topic!
Finally, Going Concern wasn't listed on The People CPAs need to follow on Twitter, so one person found this to be outrageous:
No mention of @going_concern and no mention of @Big4Veteran! Yet Kyte and Francine get mentioned?
And one just thought it was funny:
http://www.cpa2biz.com/Content/media/PRODUCER_CONTENT/Newsletters/Articles_2013/CPA/Apr/FollowonTwitter.jspNo mention of Going Concern? Ha ha
Neither Adrienne or I have slept since the list came out.
Thanks for your continued support of Going Concern.
