Ernie Bannister spent most of his career in the private sector.
He decided to give the public sector a whirl and took a job at the city of Murphy after finding out about an opening at the city.
Bannister, the city’s controller, will retire at the end of this week after a 3 1/2-year stint in the city.
For the complete story, see this week’s edition of the Murphy Monitor.
