Although judges are seeking a 4.5% raise for their nonunion workers, there are numerous other nonunion workers in the County who could use a 4.5% raise, too. The County has failed to do a job study for years, and the only way to ensure some kind of parity in the workforce is an across-the-board wage hike.
County Council member Ken Kraft is poised to present a budget amendment seeking this kind of wage hike at next Wednesday's budget hearing. If you want to see this adopted, you need to be there to make your case.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Not one response. Guess they are all too busy to ask for a raise.

DeleteSure... after attending a million meetings last fall, begging Brown to NOT change our medical, while getting trashed non-stop by the public, let's just go through it all again for him to not only NOT give us raises, but to probably take what little we have left away.
ReplyDeletePlease all Non-Union Employees attend this meeting! Your absence will speak volumes. It is just like those who complain about election results, but don't vote. Staying home, means it is o.k. to screw you again, since you really don't care. Tell you friends, co-workers, families, that everyone should attend. Bernie, I can't find the time and date for this. Please post. Please come out and at least show the county council that you are watching.
ReplyDelete10:11. Most likely no one posted because those who work in career sevices work our asses off all day long without liesure time to hang out on blogs all day long. I hope that council can recognize the disparities and do the right thing. Thank you Mr. Kraft for gettingthis on the agenda. It's appreciated more than you know.
ReplyDeleteThe meeting is Wednesday December 2nd at 4:30pm. Raises should be up by 5
