UT Austin used to do this (maybe it still does). People retire and then come back as 1099 consultants or project managers for even bigger salaries (justified by saying no fringe benefits are being paid since they are consultants). The cases I know of were when people left their posts and no one had yet been hired to replace them. The person leaving came back and was basically doing their same job, but at a higher rate. It was temporary, which may or may not be the case in the article here.

I heard Newt say on FNC this morning, that 80+% of athe State Police in California retire on “disability”.

I see the day coming when the American people are going to demand that unions have got to go.

Yet regents Chairman Richard Blum acknowledges both the obligation to pay and past agreements that “we are clearly uncomfortable with.”
Is this the same Richard Blum that belongs to DiFi???

It’s just amazing. People in the Union in the auto world make on average of $70.00 an hour and when laid off; get to come into work; sign in and play crosswords or whatever; still receiving half their pay and all of their benfits.

These are the deals being made with our oh so honest Congress. Wonder what their percentage of the take is?

I want Congress out with their dirty backroom tricks and deals we never know anything about. No wonder this country is going broke with their seperate and secret accounting systems.
