If I stole $820,000 from my employer or misappropriated those same funds I would face criminal charges and have to pay it back. Losing my job would not quite cover it.
Please educate me - how does the former GSA Chief, Martha Johnson, get to suspend a few career employees and resign and simply walk away?
Quote:
Planners spent $31,000 on a "networking reception" that featured $19-per-person "American artisanal cheese display" and a $7,000 in sushi. Taxpayers also footed the bill for a $3,200 session with a mind reader, $5,600 for in-room parties, $3,700 for T-shirts and almost $2,800 in water bottles.
A separate cocktail reception included $1,500 for "Boursin scalloped potato with Barolo wine-braised short ribs" and a $525 bartender fee for a cash bar. A senior official spent $2,700 to entertain other employees after the closing dinner. And three officials spent almost $400 for rented tuxedos.
