did you know people are paid 75k USD annually with generous benefits in the bay area for janitor duties on public transit trains?
they're paid more than most fresh non-ee/eecs bachelor grads and they're still striking for wage raises.

granted those trains are dirty but still

I think the 75K number might be off my friend. The math does not pan out at all.

If you think about it, it's pretty unlikely that the holocaust happened. Just look at the raw numbers people!

all I'm saying is that every video of 9/11 happening is low quality and really shakey

He is also talking about the most expensive city in the country that is fucking FAT on tech money. I need to see where they number came from before I will believe that San Fran is paying 75K per mop in public transit.

damn someone is ninja fast


Even when eliminating high-paid police officers and executives, the average gross pay for the blue-collar BART union workers who are threatening another shutdown was $76,551 last year

Yep, those sound like the wages of government employees who are in responsible for keeping a city moving in the most expensive city in the country. I don't think they should get a raise, but the cost of living in that city is literally insane because of all the money flowing in from tech companies. I don't begrudge at all.

I think the 75K number might be off my friend. The math does not pan out at all.

i'm talking about the median salaries of public transit trains aka BART. in my original post I didn't really feel I needed to mention the name cause nobody would recognize it anyways outside of the area, and those inside the area know what I'm talking about.

your articles are citing average janitorial salaries in bay area companies.

http://www.mercurynews.com/bart/ci_23742276/bart-workers-paychecks-already-outpace-their-peers
http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2013/10/09/phil-matier-plenty-willing-to-work-for-current-bart-wages/

http://www.mercurynews.com/salaries/bay-area/2012
look under 'bay area rapid transit', then 'car cleaning', then 'foreworker'

this isn't an opinion, it's a fact. median income in the bay area is around 60 grand and with that in mind these employees are far overpaid for what their job requires. not that I'm upset about their incomes but asking for a raise is a bit egregious.

yes, the median income is skewed by the tech yuppies but there's also a lot of people that live on paycheck to paycheck.


also it's perfectly possible to get by in the area on 50 grand a year. prices are high but not outrageous; maybe within city limits (specifically sf) and select areas where distinguished schools are located do you really need a higher salary.
don't blame everything on the average wage earner in the silicon valley

pls read and research b4 flames ty

What's a transit cop? Is it something that you'd see in a bigger city?

public transport police force (not RCMP)
they like to check for valid tickets most of the time

Officers currently make a minimum of $75,000 a year and more than one-third of officers earn in excess of $100,000 a year.

asking for 5.5% in retroactive pay and 6% pay increase while the average income in vancity is around 43k (2009)
