Cities staviing off bankruptcy

[conarb]

In an effort to stave off bankruptcy, the City of Los Angeles is laying off employees in an attempt to save $62 million a year, included are $1.7 million in building inspectors and $7 million in fire service personnel. Check out the salaries.

ConArb,

I'm more surpised that a "Clerk Typist" is getting $42,800.00 per year. Looks like they ar keeping the Electrical and Plumbing Inspectors; which makes sense, if you have to choose.

Well, Daddy-O... apparently there is no career as a garbage truck driver in LA.

Save the lawyers... save the lawyers..

Who needs building inspectors in a seismic zone, anyway?

Remember that a 3 BR 2 BA house around there sells for half a million.

Garbage man has to make 60K just to pay the rent.

Twenty years ago I read in the New Yorker that that city kept 120 lawyers on its staff who did nothing but settle claims from people who had tripped and been injured by cracks in the sidewalks.
