[QUOTE="twoweeled, post: 3383983, member: 27108"] You are probably in another part of the country, but where I'm at there is no comparison between us and firemen and police. They have a higher rate of pay, better benefits, much better job security, much much better contracts, and a retirement with "an actual" cost of living raise. Different job, it's true, but many of the public sectors have many of the items I previously noted. Sadly, many of us choose to focus on sectors dealing with the lower paid people in an attempt to make ourselves feel better. Personally, I don't get why anyone would choose to compare themselves to the worse, to lift themselves up. Regarding COLA, I think I just seen it once. I think it was a freakin dime!! No, we're not as well paid as you'd like to think. Take away the 62 hour work week, and the pay isn't all that outstanding for the work done. [/QUOTE]
