Nice paying work

The HoS reports:

A blonde model was having a relationship with disgraced Bridgecorp boss Rod Petricevic when he allegedly signed off more than $1 million in “dishonest” payments to her, according to investigators.

Janita Wright received $1.12m for claimed data entry, marketing and consultancy work from her former companion’s finance company.

However, a Government investigation failed to find evidence of work Wright had invoiced for, and said the call centre she operated for Bridgecorp had little traffic.

“Any call centre activity would have been in the weekend only and only minimal, with an average of 5 calls per weekend,” the Ministry of Economic Development (MED) report said.

The MED found at least 41 payments between February 2004 and June 2007 to a company controlled by Wright and that most were personally authorised by Petricevic.

Now let;s work this out. Five calls a weekend is 250 calls a year or around 900 calls over the payment period.

So she got paid around $1,300 per call. Nothing suspicious there at all. No.
