Money? I have 28 years with the City of Okeechobee and can tell you honestly that I have averaged just over $1,000.00 per year raise. I really don't think that is bad. When I started in 1981, I brought home $147.00 a week. Now? Almost $600. Life is good.....

If someone wants to go elsewhere, believes they are bettering themselves and makes 5 to 10 grand more a year with perks - I cannot fault them.
you guys must really love your jobs.
