25K makes no sence. If the average Nage employee makes 35K and i think thats low,
ReplyDeletehe would be entiled to a $350 raise. Using
your numbers only 71 Nage workers will receive
there 1%
I agree that $25,000 is way off. However, remember that the raise comes with each worker taking 3 days of furlough. That formula means I make at least $100 less this year than last year, with 0 % raise but no furloughs.
ReplyDeleteHey, I don't know if it makes any sense.... I just cut and pasted it from the Governors web site on the supp budget here:
