Pay
As long as the "powers at be" are allowed to take for granted that you will not complain,or its against the policy to talk to the media about your concerns,it will not change.Your pay scale is whats called the "mushroom" effect.All of the people on the street are at the bottom,or shaft, of the mushroom.The people at the top,typically the highest wage earners,are the individuals,that acquesce to the desires and demands of the management from your city hall.
As long as you do not provide a united front against pay issues, no problem will get solved

There's nothing we can do. Our city manager is the type to wine and dine you then right before the end he gives you the royal F#*K. Yet they can't figure out why we are short so many people and the morale is always low. With all these college degrees the powers to be have you would think one of them would have a bright idea. :idea:

It's not going to get fixed in the near future, because the city manager isn't going to be here for long. He's trying to pad his stats by bringing in as much money to downtown as possible while spending as little as he possibly can everywhere else. Then he's going to leave for a job at a bigger city and hopefully take his puppet at the LEC with him. Meantime, Greenville will have fewer than 100 officers.

Pay & Benefits
Why don't we get together and organize some way to make our situation known to the general public? A few ideas are to make up letters and send them to the residents of the city.....Speak with representatives of union organizations.........or better have one of these unqualified rookies, that will soon fail out, to go to the media when they leave and let them tell the truth. I know a union is a difficult process for us but we need to take action together!!

Re: PAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was 5% plus our merit raise. It's not bad but could be a lot better. Hopefully this is a beginning step.

Re: PAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No SC will not recognize unions. They don't want them here because well you know they would actually have to pay decent salaries and benefits. Our city manager is a thief and our chief has the backbone of a jellyfish. So to say the least we are screwed for a little while. But if your from FL maybe you can give us some tips to try to correct the years of injustice at what used to be one of the best departments in the state.
