According to WXIX, all of those workers have separate managers, and separate territory managers above them; the only supervisor they do have in common is Cindy Thomas, the program manager of the IRS tax-exempt organizations determinations division....
Additionally, it was Thomas signature on an IRS letter to investigative journalism outfit ProPublica sent along with confidential, still-pending applications from conservative groups in November.

According to Fox segment, each of the 5 identified IRS agents (separate is side-supervisor Stephen Seok?) has a separate manager who each had a separate territor manager) -— all designed to prevent targeting -— LOL, LOL, LOL
1) An agent gets 270 days to process each application
2) When past due, a red flag is generated and agent must then give a status update each month on each past-due application
Accding to FOX, 300 groupd targeted. They spent 18 mos - 3 yrs in system (many still in system)
This amounts to thousands of red flags generated.
