BART janitor grossed $270K in pay and benefits last year
- cjkalsdf 10y agoThat seems really low for someone who has to live in an area like the Bay Area.
- liveoneggs 10y agohe worked the hours and he deserves the pay. Good for him.
- mstodd 10y agoContractually, yes, but I doubt he delivered that level of service to the riders. BARTs carelessness is funded by American tax payers who get nothing in return
- bertiewhykovich 10y agosalaries are both definitely determined by level of service provided and ought to be determined by level of service provided. both of these are true and definitely not outrageously false.
- metilda 10y agoWho is going to do the work? Obviously BART can't get enough janitors to work these shifts, hence why this guy is busting his ass 114hrs a week to make BART cleaner than it was.
- bertiewhykovich 10y agoTo say nothing of the fact that he's been putting in 114 hours a week /as a BART janitor./ Remember when a hazmat team had to open up and hose down an escalator because it had become jammed with excrement?
- beagle3 10y ago114 hrs = 16.3 hours/day every single for 7 days a week, or 19 hours/day for 6 days a week, or 22.8 hours/day for 5 days a week. I would be really surprised if that statistic is right, especially for a whole year. edit: where did you get the 114 hours/week number? It is not in the linked article

- xrange 10y agoI guess that puts the new-minted-grads starting salaries are $100+k in perspective that those of us not in the area hear about.
- smackfu 10y agoUsually this happens because they aren't allowed to hire more employees but they still have the same work to do. A lot of workers don't want the extra shifts because they have a home life but there are outliers who will take every shift they can.
- bertiewhykovich 10y agoGood for him.
- Hydraulix989 10y agoNot to detract, but it's around $200k when you include just the pay and not the benefits.
