Friday’s mail brought an anonymous missive following regarding the apparent misuse of public funds by outgoing Gunstock General Manager Tom Day, who, it appears, used the Gunstock postage meter for postage to mail some type of personal payment from him to the City of Portland, Maine.
How do we know it was from Tom Day? Well, his name and return address appear on the envelope.
Assuming he did not reimburse Gunstock for the postage, the obvious next question is whether this misuse of public funds is limited to the general manager only or do other Gunstock employees do the same thing. Standing alone, this single instance is not much money, but multiplying it by a number of employees starts to get to more serious money.
I assume that this was caught and sent by an unnamed Gunstock staff member who saw the outgoing mail with the Gunstock meter stamp and was outraged.
And the Gunstock acolytes emphatically claim that there is no need for a forensic audit!
