Amazing statement.

Beatriz Marinello is not volunteering to be a worker.

She is volunteering to be the boss.

She is volunteering to take over as Chief Operating Officer.

She is volunteeting to take control of the bank accounts.

She is volunteering to hire and fire people and to issue orders and
see that they are obeyed.

In order to get this tremendous power she has not submitted her resume
or informed us what her qualifications for the job are other than that
she is a strong chess player.

She has pushed out the Executive Director and the Chief Financial
Officer and is moving in to take over.

I should hope that everyone can see the conflict of interest in this.

Both of them produced a sloppy work product riddled with errors and
omissions.

Hmmm. If true, maybe Sam Sloan IS the human resources director of USCF
afterall.
