BUGET BLUES

What is the deal with these buget hearings? Where do these commisioners think the buget can be cut? They ought to cut their $69,000.00 part-time salaries also if they want cuts to be made. Wat does everyone else think?

Bringing New Salaries from outside over $100,000.00 doesn't help us, does it?????

Rumor has it everyone's salaries will be cut $1,000 a year and all of our benefits will be taken away......so our salaries will be cut in half.

How come when we hire a person for a normal position they come from all areas, but when we hire someone for a top salary position they come from Lee County? HMMM.

Name one...

How about the new insurance person.
The new finace person
The Colonel
LP from Deputy to Captain

If I figure correctly that's over $350,000 dollars worth of salary before benefits.

Oh, I forgot the part time marine deputy that used to be the Boca Grande deputy for Lee county. Who also works for a marine supply company who is contracting to sell the CCSO two very expensive new boats. Wonder who's going to make the commision on those.

How about M.M.? Isn't he supposed to be over the volunteers up at the mall or whatever made to order position he now has. Isn't he also from Lee Co? He went from SRO to a cush job in one stroke of the pen. What exactly does he do to earn that nice pay check? And speaking of earning a paycheck - the chucklehead cpl PS over the volunteers - remind me again what he is supposed to be doing to justify his existence and *Edited by Mod 610 due to violations of TOU*. So the next time you are behind on your many status 2 reports and the calls keep coming in just think about how many road deputies all these BFF positions would equate to. Gotta love it. After these fours years are over CCSO will be looking for a buy out just like GM got because the cash cow is being milked dry under this admin.

Don't forget about the other part timer MG, who is coming to work cold cases at $35,000.00 a year part time. The same cases he couldn't solve while working full time.

You all neeed to worry about yourselves and grow up. MG is a good guy and was a good investigator when he was in MCU.
