They are textbook examples of the need for unions, and the fate of workers without union representation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999078.post-88219450556432379582011-03-30T16:42:05.225-04:002011-03-30T16:42:05.225-04:00Ok, look up my salary as a Judicial Asst. in Duval...Ok, look up my salary as a Judicial Asst. in Duval County since 2002. Elizabeth Gardner. We are the people that are getting cuts not the big ones listed. It's us under 40K that work very hard. I am not one of those employees that got a state raise. I haven't rec'd one in 6 almost 7 years. Instead, I'm getting reduced each year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999078.post-49489615205331357932011-03-28T15:01:21.593-04:002011-03-28T15:01:21.593-04:00"A quick look for locally employed state work..."A quick look for locally employed state workers in Hendry county found some surprises." Why would any of these salaries surprise you? Unless you are fully aware of the daily job duties and responsibilities of each of these employees, then how can you rationalize whether their salaries are surprising? <br />Again, another example of your stellar journalism! You should post your salary, so we could find it "surprising" that you are paid anything at all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999078.post-25281391552748886242011-03-28T11:25:22.002-04:002011-03-28T11:25:22.002-04:00Since when have salaries of public employees ever ...Since when have salaries of public employees ever been "secret"? In fact they have not been and you could have gotten the same information with a public records request. All the governor did was spend money he didn't have to spend but yet he's going to save money by reneging on his contract with employees.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
