I wonder what that audit cost? I mean spending (just guessing here) some where between $20,000 and $200,000 to audit 4 petty cash accounts with a total dollar value of less than $5,000. Just close the damn thing assume there was wrong doing and save the audit money. The idiots involved are gone.

None of the recommendations for improvements in the report are projected to save money according to the report (but all will cost money in time and efficiency). If this were the private sector whomever ordered that audit wouldn't be getting any cost savings bonus this year.

It would be nice to see who that no bid contract for team building was awarded to though, maybe Few's buddy from OK? That sure smells.

Not so my good man. There is a budget office in the agency....you know the folks who are supposed to keep track of stuff like that. They are still here.
