After doing IT Consulting/auditing work with KPMG for the last 10 months, and traveling most of that time living out of a suitcase each week, I decided I've had enough and resigned from there.

Got a job locally doing IT audit work, and the best part is: NO TRAVEL! Woohooo!

Travel sucks.

How much travel have you been having to do?

Don't get me wrong, Per Diems are sweet, and I hit platinum status at Marriott hotels and American Airlines, but it just kills your system after a while

probably nothing compared to you.

- 3 trades show a year, one as an exhibitor, two as vistors (3-4 weeks total)
- make an out of state sales call about once a month
- day trips to Dallas or Little Rock twice a month
