Who is the world?s worst accountant?? Google it and you get a long list of companies like Enron & WorldCom. Well, add the City of Phoenix to that list today. Take a good look at the picture because whoever figured there was enough money in the city to pay out bonuses must have had on darker glasses then this guy!

It seems one of them must work in the City of Phoenix, or perhaps several. Recently, several managers in the City of Phoenix were awarded with ?CASH BONUSES?. Cash bonuses??

Douchbagsaywhat?

Assholesayhuh?

Sphinctersaywhat?

Isn?t the city in a financial mess?

Hundreds of job?s are being cut to balance the city budget! The city manager Frank Fairbanks, has asked all city employees to tighten up and face facts. He has asked people to submit to furlough days (taking time off and not being paid to help the city save money), he has asked employees to cut all costs as this is the worst budget crisis in the city?s history. Months and months of preparing all employees for the worst of times to come, cutting jobs, positions lost in all departments. Some of these city employees lost everything. Not just their jobs, but their security, benefits and livelihoods. Then all of a sudden, the city comes up with over $354,800 in cash bonuses to be paid out to middle and upper level managers. Fairbanks said these bonuses were calculated long before any troubled times in the city. BULLSHIT!! Years and years the city has been cutting costs and laying off employees, closing down special programs to save money.

Frank let us give you a quick lesson how the real world works. When you made the statement that, ?Jack Ass Harris manages over 5,000 associates and if he were a company, he would be paid in the millions??Mr. Fairbanks, your logic is flawed.

Jack Harris couldn?t and wouldn?t manage a real corporation. He doesn?t have the smarts and nuts to lead. CEOs of major corporations don?t have their administrative assistance do their homework to earn their degrees. CEOs have degrees from Wharton, Stanford and Harvard - not University of Phoenix, Ottawa and Apollo College. A corporation under Jack would crumble. A real Board would have a vote of ?no confidence? and oust an idiot like Jack Harris. If a manager in a corporation gets caught covering up for their buddies; one who hides porno on their computer or a drunk marine who gets free transportation to work each day, that manager would be fired - Pronto! Public corporations are accountable to shareholders. You can go to YahooFinance to see the message board on corporations.

Also Frank, when these message boards and shareholders rant or rave about the corporation, their homes don?t get raided and their computers aren?t taken. Plus, fat slobs in Hawaii shirts that leave moisture stains on chairs, don?t get to have a say in the Pension plan. As matter of record there is no pension plan. One gets options or grants and you get paid on how well the Enterprise does. When you retire, you actually retire and CEOs aren?t hired back with fancy titles like chief manager officer or enterprise leader of the corporation. Jack's current "corporation" AKA the Phoenix PD lacks focus, discipline and a strong smart leadership team.

To single out a few names known on the blogs here, let?s start with Andy Anderson, better known as Road Rage Andy or Middle finger Andy. Andy loves to intimidate woman (including wives, daughters and PLEA PR reps), and he got $2,400 in bonus. This is the guy who was in charge of the investigative division for the last few years with Ass Clowns like Joe Klima, Joe Knott, Potato Head Polombo, Alex Femenia, Boy Wonder Pat Kotecki and all the other ones responsible for the big cover up in the Baseline Killer case. Gee Road Rage Andy, how many DNA requests did you refuse to approve because there was not enough money in the budget to pay for an outside, competent lab to see if someone might be innocent or guilty!!

Joe Klima got $4,100. What the hell did he do to get a cash bonus!?!

With 10% going to tidings, this leaves this again, ?passed-over-for-the-commanders-gig? Joe, with a Net of $3,590. How many days did Joe take off for not getting the job this time? Was it 4-5 days to sulk or was it 12 like last time? All he has done is cause havoc in VCB. The entire division has breathed a sigh of relief now that he has been transferred. Praise Heavenly Father!

The chief Jack Ass got a bonus of $5,000. Here is a useless fucktard who gets a monthly pension and a salary of nearly $6,000 per week for the same job he retired from. WTF? Not to mention how many hundreds of thousands of dollars he got from the DROP program to leave the department and not ever come back. There is more scandal and corruption in the department than ever before and he gets rewarded with 5K in cash. 5K!! That could pay for probably 2 or 3 months? salary for a few of the ones who lost their job.

The list goes on?.

George Richards. $4,100. This is the guy in charge of PSB. George is the one who failed to act on numerous complaints of Jeff the blogger's complaints into Louie Tovar, dismissing the very complaint which was the catalyst for this Blog. Richards has intentionally fucked over more cops for no reason at all but to make a name for himself, or get his year end bonus. WHAT A JOKE!! I wonder George if you would have done your job just think, this website and all the scandal it has caused, all the headaches, all the leaked memo?s, all the crime lab issues all the baseline killer cover-ups never, ever would have been known. Well thanks for a job well done George!! Because of your failure to act on ethics and what is the right thing to do, a lot has come to light.

Here is an interesting one. Light Rail loaned executive, Wulf Grot, $3,000. WTF? Are we now a bank? And what the hell is Wulf Grot? It sounds like a VD! (Gee sorry Heather, that whole academy class gave you the Wulf Grot) Last the AZ Republic reported was the light rail is losing money! How the hell should anyone in light rail get a bonus when they spent billions and wiped out numerous local businesses to build that a train to nowhere. That train ran the budget into the ground before it was ever powered up and bonuses got paid out to people.

I wonder how many would be willing to pay back their bonus? Remember the AIG bonus program? Several, if not all, gave them back. What would $300,000 do for the city. It would help replace an aging fleet of broken patrol cars for the street cop. It would hire a few more officers or firefighters. How many low paying jobs could be given back to the dedicated city employee who lost their job to help balance the budget. At least 17 people would have a job for another year at $10.00 per hour instead of being unemployed. That would have been the right thing to do!

Shame on the City of Phoenix.
