Bookkeeping Union Can’t keep Its Books Straight!

Another gem for the “you couldn’t make this up” file:  According to the New York Post, a 2,300-member union of city accountants “had no idea how much money was in its bank accounts, according to a draft report by its international union and obtained by The Post.”

The Post obtained a June 22, 2009 report from the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which admitted, “The local is not up to date on its financial reporting, bank reconciliations, and entering its checks into its accounting system.”

Is it just me, or is The Onion becoming less necessary by the hour?
