@Mods the actual title is "19,000 Highly Compensated City Employees Earned $150,000+ In Pay & Perks" and there is a later quote of "18,759 highly compensated employees from each bringing home pay packages worth $150,000 (or more) annually."
It seems to me that the current title editorialized the post to seem like its $150k+ in salary when in fact it seems to be factoring pension and other elements.
- RestlessMind 6y agoIt didn't fit in the title length guidelines for HN and I had to shave off a few characters. Mind suggesting a better paraphrasing of the entire title?
- tmpz22 6y agoPerhaps "San Francisco Troubles - 19,000 City Employees earned $150k in Pay & Perks"? Given that "Highly paid" is subjective and a source of contention even in this thread.
