What is the name of your state? Maine
OK, I work for a city in the state of Maine, and there have been allegations that the mayor has stolen money. (He has since resigned, since his term was up). So they hired a firm to do a thorough audit. The audit will be made public in 3 days. I was shown a paragraph that says "the mayor and MY-NAME decided to disable security protocols on the accounting server, thereby making a true audit of transactions on the accounting server impossible". I was horrified when I saw this. I would never do such a thing and am not even sure such a thing could be done! Upon further discussion, it turns out the we did not renew software support on the accounting software, and this makes the auditing firm think that the software no longer works. Of course the software still works, it's just that we don't get any support or new features. So I am guilty of nothing.
But this doesn't matter I guess. I am being told that the report will be made public in 3 days anyways! I don't even get a chance to read the full report (and anything else I might be accused of) before the media gets it. This can't be right!! I haven't slept much since seeing this part of the report.
Anyone?
