Taking “Stock” of Bernstock
From the looks of it, Robert Bernstock, former president of shipping and mailing services for the U.S. Postal Service, had many, many other things on his mind during his two-year stint with the financially strapped USPS.
According to the Federal Times, between June 2008 and February 2010, one or more unnamed postal staffers sent or received 1,422 e-mails regarding Bernstock’s outside businesses or from his tax accountant and financial adviser. Or, about 71 e-mails per month. Yikes!
Bernstock resigned his position June 4 and is currently under investigation for awarding about $5.8 million in no-bid contracts to his former business associates.
