es | www paulweiss.com (10 hours ago) to me Jeffrey Pete informs the GIV is completed, Thx, Larry Date: Tue, Nov 15, 2016 at 6:13 AM Subject: Fwd: To: Melanie Spinella iii Leon, Congragulations on biting the bullet. at least 18 months late , but Im encouraged and glad for you. When you interviewed Brad two years ago you asked that i not tell him what a disaster lay before him. what would you like me to tell Barry? There is a HUGE amount of work to be done in the next 9 -12 months. mostly the exact same work that i outlined in my email of 2 years ago. now complicated by years of mess on top. ( you can send it again if you like ). Brad wechsler was never up to the task . sorry, I realize I have been saying the very same thing for a long time. he was a not a step up from Eileen but a step sideways. in the beginning there was Eileen and Tom and Ralph Lerner. all your hand picks. then brad. john, Joe. . joslin was chosen from a pool of 2 people. each that would be limited by a salary of 250k. ( yes 1 personally augmented his comp in order to get him ) I did say hire both Lisa to do the bookkeeping and joslin tax, He complained for over a year , re his direction by eileen and ada , and then brad. His breakdown was not a surprise after months and moths of warnings. Though disabled, he ran your office this year. with john and joe. He ran amok, and as i told you he rarely failed to remind me in our conversations that you told him that he works for you and not for me and that brad needs to pays him . . Asking me who to hire , estate attny tax people etc. : I have taken heat for years over the fact that i gave you no more than carlyns name, . no follow up questions no interactions , not even one single question asked of me re her work. (that was Eileen _) but somehow carlyns fuck up was my doing. . | when i told you that i thought Eileen wasn't up to the task, you bellowed that 1 was talking out of both sides of my mouth. . You told me this year , that by trying to protect you from crazy joslin, I had in essence fired him and it was my responsibility to do his work. it then turns out that he didn't consider himself fired at all he just received less money. and continued to make a really dangerous mess.. Joshn castrucci, in your eyes , was also my doing , though email after email said , I take no responsibility for him,and 1YOU SHOULD NOT HIRE HIM |!!!, , your response was that was my opinion was only because i didn't trust him. then to add insult to injury last jan you told me he was gone. however he too is still there, and a waste of money and space. My time is complicated by Donald's potentially eviscerating any reason for anyone to use the foreign funds repatriation plan that i had put together. . however as you are aware I have some decisions to make re my time allocation in the next year or two. so at least for a few weeks I am unable to commit much time and make any future plans to guide you in the redoing of your procrastination produced HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_023242
