I am going to be working in the treasury office in the Easthampton City Hall. I will be interning with Joane, she is the assistant treasurer. I will have time to work with other office's in the City Hall. I will be learning about taxes, budget, and trust funds within the city of Easthampton. I will also take a trip to the State House in Boston to meet with other treasurers from across the state.

Day Six: Monday 16th
Today the first thing that I worked on was completed Payroll. I was given a few sheet from different department and so Melissa and I did them because Joanne was not there this morning. We went into KVS the accounting system and entered the times that people worked according to the sheets and the money they earn an hour into the system. Later when Joanne came in, she taught me how to proof the payroll and check for any mistakes. To proof the payroll we added up all the final amounts for each departments payroll and looked to see if Joanne and I got the same final number for payroll that the Sue in the Auditor's Office got. We got the same numbers so that meant that the numbers were correct and payroll was done and entered in the system. Later Joanne printed checks out for all departments and employees. I also worked with Melissa on finishing up some trust fund stuff because the codes were issued and given to Sue today to cut checks for but we needed to explain to here some things about the accounts the money was coming from. Also Sabrina dropped off some more of the money for the trusts so that the city could issue the high school their scholarship checks. I also checked the Treasurer's mail today and we received some of the tailings forms back explaining that the people would like the city to re-issue them a check to be deposited. We will issue those people back their checks later in the week when we get more forms returned. Also I spent some time researching addresses in order to disperse retirement money to people who are entitled to it. Lastly I made a direct deposit for payroll that we entered into the system that morning, so we took the money from the actual bank account and made a direct deposit.
