[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 780693, member: 12952"] [B]Cosmetic surgery costs stir controversy[/B] [B]Buffalo Schools are facing possible layoffs[/B] BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - The Buffalo School District is hurting for money and facing possible layoffs. So why did the district spend millions of dollars on cosmetic surgery for it's employees? Layoffs are always on the table as the Buffalo School District struggles to close a budget deficit that's topped $30 million. That's what board member Chris Jacobs says is so troubling about the report, that it paid $8 million for employees cosmetic surgery in 2009 alone. He's calling for a full investigation. "If I was a teacher that's not using this benefit and I know my colleagues are getting laid off I'd be troubled too," Jacobs said. Buffalo Teacher's Federation President Phil Rumore says the provision was included in the union's contact 30 years ago.
