Daly City's actually pretty convenient if you live near 280 or, to a lesser extent, 101. Most of it is only a few minutes away from the highway. If they found an office that was within walking distance of BART and had dedicated parking, I could see it being an interesting compromise solution.

The only way you could move such a thing to Daly City is if you could somehow pitch as a cool place to be. But as the poster below says, yeah, it's a compromise, which makes it a non-starter.

104,739 residents (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daly_City,_California) would probably disagree.
Also, outside of San Francisco proper, Daly City is the only destination served by 4 BART lines.
Then, on top of that, they're moving the office to... Daly City?! Daly City is essentially the worst of all worlds: it's not really readily accessible to anyone -- and it's an undesirable eye sore on top of it. There are places that make no sense to relocate to that still make more sense than Daly City (e.g., Pleasanton, San Rafael, Alameda, Walnut Creek, Burlingame) -- Daly City is almost where you would locate a company if you simply hated the employees. So at that point, you do begin to wonder about the mental stability of the CEO: the choice of Daly City is so completely bizarre that it almost certainly reflects other things amiss in the way decisions are made.
