Complaint Review: NV Energy

Tony Sanchez is NV Energy’s Big Man on Campus (BMOC), apparently. Some of the things he does – and gets away with – are the opposite of what most would consider to be sound moral and ethical business practices; they get swept under the rug by the Nevada Energy giant.

I know this because I was on the receiving end of it and watched him mislead women. If anyone ever applied scrutiny to Tony Sanchez’s company credit cards, some of the things found charged on there would jump out and bite you like a junkyard dog. Talk about corporate credit card abuse! I know if I ever charged some of the “business expenses” on my company’s credit card (like the way he did), I’d be out of a job.

I knew he was married and he knew I was married. It didn’t stop either of us.

Tony Sanchez (actually his full real name is Anthony Francis Sanchez III) and I connected with each other through our working relationship when he landed in Washington, DC as part of some sort of year-long job exchange with the Edison Electric Institute. During that time, he explained to me the lack of intimacy in his marriage with his lovely but detached wife, Elaine, and also told me about his four children.  

As I reflect on my own weakness in believing that this almighty, high-powered, egotistical, self-proclaimed super-power lawyer (get it? – power, energy), I realize I was simply overtaken by the chemistry between us and it clouded my thinking.  I hoped he was the one.  But it didn’t take too long for me to see the kind of character he had. During a particularly vulnerable time for me I had spent days in the hospital and a friend came to my rescue and got me out of there -- I needed a glass of wine. My friend and I went to a restaurant for a drink, and who do I run into but Mr. Power himself, Tony Sanchez.  But this time he was with another woman. When I saw them together, I realized at that moment I was no different to him than any other woman -- his wife included -- and that I would never be any different. It was a sobering moment. I realized I was a fool for placing my full faith and trust in Tony Sanchez, a mistake I’ll never make again.  I just hope he doesn’t hurt anyone else.
