“Special Nurse:” $350,000+
Municipal railway manager: $325,000+
“Administrative services” department head: $280,000+
And no, the figures do not include pensions and benefits.
And they want you to bail them out?
Please.

Are the wages so high in California because everything costs so much,

or

does everything cost so much in California because the wages are so high?

They do have an elitist mentality, wouldn't you say.

A friend of mine from high school took a job as an engineer for the state of California right after college.
We both bought houses around 1978.
His payment was $1100, mine was $272.

My house was bigger.

the first due to taxes and cost of living, wages have to keep up. Vicious cycle.

My salary wouldn't be on the radar out there.

Mobilized1 · 05-29-2009, 08:57 AM

No I don't make that much but it would be nice.

Hollywood should be able to bail out California, especially in our new socialist society. Why has Obamahood not thought of that?

Ed,

Based on the numbers that you posted above, I think I have found what my job classification would be in California. Could you share the annual income numbers with me for what a street bum's income would be? Because it seems that that will be about 3 pay grades above where I am currently.
