Vacation time as well. It's a massive scam here in CA too. I know 2 firefighters and a cop who have all just retired before 55. All 3 took multiple vacation days in their last 3 years but somehow they magically hadn't taken a vacation in years. Their retirement year of income was padded by 50-100% with overtime and years of "saved vacation". This means the will receive a certain percentage of their final years average income for the rest of their lives and in most cases their spouse's lives. How would you advise your children?WestlinnDuck said:
The other trick is that the pension payout is usually a large percentage of you last one or two or three year's average wage. So, anyone retiring in the next year is given a boatload of overtime. In Oregon, Multnomah County sheriff's working at the jail were making $200,000 their last year based on massive overtime. Because you government cares.PurpleThrobber said:The standard trick in gubmint work is to retire with full pension, then come back as an independent contractor/consultant creating havoc for the successor they never trained for succession in the first place - which then makes the retiree/contractor even more valuable and they negotiate a bigger contract.

The only downside to a career in government, unless it's at a pretty high level that makes you attractive to the private sector when you leave (like, for example, working for the SEC in a substantive role), is that you have no realistic experience and no idea what it takes to hump in the private sector. You work for the gov. too long and you'll become unemployable if, for whatever reason, you have to leave.DuckHHunterisafag said:

The GC I worked at a few years ago during my comeback hired a guy that had extensive "experience" working on the LA rapid transit train. Top notch PMcreepycoug said:

After I fired him after a few weeks of poor performance and inability to get anything done we looked at his computer and he had youtube videos of how to be a PM

after all he DID get Race out of the Tent, off the Street and back to WORK! -
You can't bail them out. A state that offers salaries and benefits like this gets a massive competitive advantage over states that choose fiscal responsibility. To bail them out rewards them for screwing over the other 49 states for years and tests other states to do the same shit.
FUCK THAT ILLINOISE -
