Sure, most accountants are jaded.
Heck, we get the front row seats and watch people pull back their veneers and give us a peek into their souls. Pretty ugly sight at times. Income tax return setting...somewhat. Death and divorce settings....big time.

But still, if you are Pres. and this guy isn't straight with you from the get go, are you going to tolerate it? That's the biggest problem I have with TD.... and with Obama for acquessing.

Show some spine. Cut him loose. That's my advice.
