Monterey Park city manager to get $186,000
Another example of why government jobs are the way to go:
Council to vote on city manager
If her contract is approved, June Yotsuya will begin work April 28 and will earn approximately $186,000 per year.
The city reached an agreement with her Friday, after five weeks of negotiations that began following a 3-2 council vote Feb. 6. Yotsuya did not return calls for comment.
Yotsuya's three-year contract specifies a compensation level 5 percent above the highest possible pay for the police chief - which is currently about $177,000, city officials said. Yotsuya will also get 12 months of severance pay if fired and will have five weeks of vacation - plus sick and administrative leave - per year. Read more.
But then again, if you've ever seen Monterey Park City Council members is action, you could see how this amount could be justified.
Comments
I had a long talk with my young daughter last evening....I told her to forget a career as a Doctor, Lawyer or other highly educated professional. Instead, she might want to consider getting a mail order type degree and going to work in public administration..the requirements are far easier, the hours are far better and the pay/benefits are the best!
