The NYPD’s highest-paid employee — who shoveled in more than $400,000 last year — filed for retirement this week amid an internal affairs probe into her astronomical overtime, The Post has learned.
Lt. Quathisha Epps will retire just shy of 20 years with the department, sources said — an early exit that will impact her pension and cost her a $12,000-a-year supplement for cops who reach the two-decade mark.
Leaving money on the table is seemingly uncharacteristic for Epps, who raised eyebrows by pulling in roughly $204,000 in overtime last year for her administrative job in NYPD Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey’s office, payroll records show.
Sources told The Post that Epps’ whopping overtime was capped after The Post’s exclusive report last month on her pay. She was also told she’d be put back on patrol — an apparently unappetizing prospect after her cushy desk job, according to the sources.
“There is no way she was going to go out on patrol,” one source told The Post.

Epps isn’t alone in topping $100,000 in overtime pay. More than 300 NYPD officers reached that mark.
I looked even though I already knew. Can we still use the word “uppity”?

“If you have five days, five months or five years, or 55 years. How do you choose to spend it?” Epps asked.
evidently, overtime becomes your focus of life? at least getting paid for overtime.
“”Quathisha Epps””
Do I need to look?
Man, I was a sergeant in two different police departments, and made in the mid 30s. Clearly I was doing something wrong.
San Francisco is starting at $112,000 now.
Problem is, you have to work in San Francisco.
That surname seems cursed.
I looked even tho’ it wasn’t necessary.
She has to be a relative of Fani Willis - looks a lot like her - same arrogant smirk - haughty!
Reminds me of what I thought of the obamas their first night in the WH. I’m sure Michelle said, “I can’t believe we pulled this off, can you?”
Nothing reported about a disability although she is a cancer survivor.
Epps...what does Ray get?
Given: $400K in a year, with $204K of that being overtime.
Results:
Standard Pay (not overtime): $196K. Divided by 52 weeks, then by 40 hours per week = $94.23/hr.
Assuming overtime hours = time and a half, that's = $141.35/hr.
Aforementioned $204K total overtime divided by $141.35 overtime pay = 1,443 overtime hours in a year, or 27.75 hours per week.
So unless I'm missing stuff like a lot of double-time and a half on holidays or whatever, are we really supposed to believe she worked 67 hour weeks all year?
“are we really supposed to believe she worked 67 hour weeks all year?”
She averaged 72 hours per week.
Take a look at this hardworking individual:
Common Amish name, I understand.
So....will it be Riker’s Island or Club Fed?

Recently there was one of those big billboard type ads at a shopping mall in suburban Boston from the New Haven (CT) Police Dept looking for cops. It said you’d be making $75,000 a year after two years.
