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 | ||

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 | ||
