Re: "CEO: Auditors didn't like what they found" (Jan. 27 Star)

I am sickened and disturbed after reading the article about the $150K bonus that was received by [four] employees at CMC. You obviously think that you built and ran CMC by yourselves; that is what bonuses are paid for: employees who exceed expectations, and you did not.

I also find it hard to believe that these bonuses were not known by the board. Where are the checks and balances as these checks are written and signed. Again, shame.

I am quite sure that it is too late to prosecute these immoral people, but to them I would like to say, gift the money back to the CMC Guild who will truly do good work with the money and they would reject bonuses for doing so. You took advantage of CMC, your fellow employees and your community. Shame on all of you.
