Fabri Digs In

When Tony Fabri was appointed Auditor, a number of people questioned his qualifications for the position.  Well, I bring a counter to that charge to all you doubters.  I walked into Tony's office today and found him digging into the task of stuffing checks into envelopes for delivery to all the vendors who the County is paying this week.  When Tony was first appointed he was far too humble to mention his nearly two decades long experience stuffing envelopes for Democratic candidates but today we are seeing the fruits of that experience.

Lest you think I'm being critical I have two points.  First, I've done quite a bit of envelope stuffing in my office.  Second, I think Fabri did more work today than his predecessor did in four years.

I wasn't able to confirm whether Tony was going to deliver the checks by hand.  If he's doing that, it could explain his, well, less than consistent presence at his office since he's been appointed.

Well at least Tony was at work when his staff needed him. Curt Deedrich was earning his County paycheck by spending the week farming. After all the county did sent out more than 70,000 tax bills this week.

The Auditor has an Accounting Manger who essentially runs the office.   What is the typical day-to-day life like for the County Auditor?    Or what should it be?

One thing is very apparent to me,,,,,is this county could do without almost everyone of it's elected officials,,,,they are superflous in almost every conceivable way.  A professional has to be paid to do their job, in most cases.we pay tax'es for a group to draw a very nice salary,,,,nice benefits,,,,,and speak badly about each other,,,too bad we will never see them all eliminated by the ballot box.  Like the property tax is in my opinion,,,legal theft.
