FinallyFree,
I'm hoping you can answer some questions about your post that I copied below. If anyone else can chime in or elaborate on my questions, I'd appreciate that very much.
I'm trying to better understand "staff pay" and "where the monies go" when an "account debit sale" is deducted from "gross income".
1.“FBO” means Flag Banking Officer? Who does an “FBO” work for? In FinallyFree's post, did they work for the “LA Day Org” or someone else?
2.“BSO” means Book Store Officer? I imagine the “BSO” works for “LA Day Org” - Yes?
3.Finally Free wrote, “Why would the FBO product officer the BSO?” – what does this mean? Are you saying that a financial officer was pushing book sales? Something that is “not their hat”?
4.FinallyFree wrote, “the FBO was constantly with the BSO on book sales” ? Why was this a “bizarre scene” ? Doesn't a financial executive need sales data?
5.FinallyFree wrote, “ Shit I have seen DM, WDC’s and Leserve and cronies with my on eyeballs in my org. Cross ordering, being screamed at for not answering a telex or meeting quotas…..” Are you saying that these top execs took an interest in book sales or simply stating that these individuals were a general nuisance?
The infighting over "account debit sales" confuses me. I fully understand how "account debit sales" deducted from gross income, effects staff pay. But this could be solved procedurally. Why the perpetual wrangling?
Is it because prepayments are held by the Org? Do funds leave the "Org" and move "up-lines" when an “account debit sale” is made? That's the only reason I can think of for tussling over these funds.
Any information on how receipts from book sales move “up-lines” -- any information on how book profits are allocated or disbursed (and to who) -- any further information on other "adjustments" that effect staff pay -- would be much appreciated!

”Cash book sales vs. account debit book sales were a point of high contention at LAD. Whenever GI (Gross Income) was low the ED/CO would check the book sales and ask for the dollar amount that was debited from accounts. One ED and another CO in particular focused in on reducing account debiting for book sales.
Book sales done from debiting from partial or fully paid serviced of any kind was heavily frowned upon. I personally observed the CO accuse the FBO of deliberately attempting to sabotage the org from large debits done off accounts. Debits from service payments. It was a bizarre scene the FBO was constantly with the BSO on book sales. (My memory is foggy on this one. Maybe I didn’t notice the out-point until I now because I am out – but is the FBO senior to the BSO in any way? Why would the FBO product officer the BSO? Carmel – do you know?) Anyways. It was like a witch hunt. WHO is selling books by debiting accounts? WHY aren’t they getting CASH for books??? THEY’RE SUPRESSIVE! It was even subject to an announcement by the CO that staff pay was going to be horrible because of large debits for book sales.
Well then Bridge starting coming into our org…. because someone was suppressing book sales. So then we had Bridge SO members and the FBO in a power struggle with the CO. So then the CO went to management….. Being on staff is hard enough. Try being on staff where any ASHO, AO, Bridge, FOLO, CLO S.O. member could walk right into your org at any time for any reason. Shit I have seen DM, WDC’s and Leserve and cronies with my on eyeballs in my org. Cross ordering, being screamed at for not answering a telex or meeting quotas….. yeah it was all fun and games at LA Day. OH and being subjected to the same S.O. all-hands – because your org sat next to S.O. orgs…. How many times have I said “But I am not S.O.!”……”
