We took over 5 departments in October and discovered a ton of things that were obviously falling through the cracks... Needless to say, we knew we had out work cut out for us.... anyway, January we're told that auditors will show up at the end of the month... We really didn't have too much time to fix and put things in order, so we knew we were going to fail.... Oh well, needless to say, we have a lot of clean up to do.... Enjoy el DF tomorrow...
