>>>County Workers Approve Contract Extension, Two Percent Pay Raise<<<
LOL Increase? Today our Governor proposed an 8% across the board pay cut for all State employees... PLUS another 2% average cut in their insurance - they will have to now pay part. Facing a 10% total pay cut, they are livid! Demonstrations, calling for Governor to resign, like they were the only thing the State was there for... And he is a Democrat....
I remember a few years back, when there was a budget shortfall and they decided to cut 10% of the State Parks revenue... So the parks cut the toll takers jobs and then closed the parks because they were required to charge but had nobody to collect the fees... Of course all the other deadwood continued to collect their full salaries - but nothing really to do all day except answer the phones and tell people the park was closed...
Not one of them was smart enough to do as the Salisbury, Md. Zoo does... they put a donation box at each entrance and nobody there to collect the fees. Most people put in more than would normally be charged and they have no labor costs for collection. Their revenues went up considerably.

Good idea if the thieves will leave it alone.
All these shortages of money, strange, no shortage of money, until some one pulled the switch and all of a sudden it was a disaster.
