S.W. Conser to Staff, Matthew, Adin, Jeff, Lisa, Lyn, Timothy, Sue, Mark, MichaelP
Hello all,
As I'm sure you're all aware, the coming weeks are sure to present challenges for KBOO. In addition to the runup to the end of FY13, we're in the midst of our Board election season and we're entering our license renewal period. As of August 26th, we do have a new Board Treasurer to assist our finance team, but our Interim Station Manager remains on leave until September 9th.
In order to help the staff address issues of concern, the Directors wish to make themselves more available, and until further notice will be taking a more active role in assuming management oversight. If anyone has urgent questions about policy or procedure, please feel free to reach the members of the Executive Committee. Our e-mail addresses are:
S.W. Conser, President <conchdotcom@gmail.com>
Matthew Bristow, V.P./Member-at-Large <mbr.kboo.board@gmail.com>
Adin Rogovin, Treasurer <adin@trimtab.net>
Thank you, -- S.W.C.

So far Adin has "assisted the finance team" by creating such chaos in the department that Accountemps has pulled out their employee and are unlikely to ever again provide assistance to KBOO...

So the directors, apparently the three in the executive committee, are managing staff? Staff including the cadre recruiter volunteer coordinator? Ani Haines must find this amusing. Unless there's paperwork (besides this email) giving these people real power over her. In which case she'll find it less amusing.

The KBOO Coup is complete. That's why it's no longer funny, there's no possibility of fixing KBOO anymore.
The Board is a hand appointed bunch of people who won't contradict the core staff and volunteers. There is no manager, and the job description of manager is being re-written by staff members so it will never again threaten the primacy of control by the staff. There is no longer a finance director, the treasurer of many years service to KBOO resigned in protest, there is only a part time finance assistant who made a formal complaint of Aiden's behavior to the manager (still on leave), and the accounting temp who has worked at KBOO made a complaint to their boss at the home corp, and only after some negotiations has agreed to return to work at KBOO until a replacement can be found. Bruce Silverman made keys for Aiden to the finance office and all the locked cabinets. The remaining finance people found out not by Aiden asking for information from them (appropriate) but by coming to work and finding him inside their previously locked and restricted workspace demanding computer passwords. At least that's my recollection of what's been said so far.
No worries comrades.

There are so many things wrong with this I don't know where to start.

Bruce not only takes out the trash, he lets it in. Bruce, a volunteer, has keys to the finance office and the locked filing cabinets. How did Adin gain access to these? Take a guess.
