Help debunk this anti-public worker e-mail.   
   
I received the following e-mail from a right leaning relative. I assume these kinds of e-mails are making the rounds. The following sounds like a fabrication to me. Please give me some specifics so I can fight back.



NO WONDER THESE PUBLIC EMPLOYEES CAN BE PROTESTING AND MISS DAYS OF WORK, LOOK AT THESE SALARIES!!!

Subject: FW: 2010 Teacher Actual Wages - Govt wages exposed

ATTACHED: This is the official excel DPI database of teachers wages by school district. Look up your own district !!!

The current budget repair bill would have them paying about 5.8% towards their own retirement....right now, we the taxpayer, pay 100% of their generous retirement, and most of us pay 100% of our own retirement too.

AVERAGE WAGE AND BENEFITS
(remember this is for about 185 DAYS OF WORK!)

TEACHERS:

Milwaukee $86,297

Elmbrook $91,065

Germantown $83,818

Hartland Arrowhead $90,285
(highest teacher was $122,952-lowest was $64,942)

Men. Falls $81,099

West Bend $82,153

Waukesha $92,902

Sussex $82,956

Mequon $95,297

Kettle Mor $87,676

Muskego $91,341

STAFF:

Arrowhead - Bus Mgr - Kopecky - $169,525

Arrowhead - Principal - Wieczorek
$152,519

Germantown - Asst Prin. - Dave Towers - $123,222

Elmbrook - Burliegh Elemetary - Principal Zahn- $142,315 (for a primary school!!)

Madison - Asst Principal - McGrath - $127,835

UNIVERSITY of WISCONSIN STAFF(2009) (salary alone):

Michael Knetter - Prof of Bus - $327,828

Carolyn Martin -Chancellor Mad- $437,000

Hector Deluca - Prof of Nutritional Science - $254,877 (really??)

(source:Madison.com -as the UW removed salaries from being posted online in 2007- why if they are so low?)

How about some other "public servant jobs"??? What do they make?

Madison Garbage men (2009) (salary only):

* Garbageman, Mr. Nelson earned $159,258 in 2009, including $109,892 in overtime and other pay.

* Garbageman, Greg Tatman, who earned $125,598

* 7 Madison garbage men made over $100,000

* 30 Madison garbage men made over $70,000

MILWAUKEE CITY BUS DRIVERS (salary only):

136 Drivers made more than $70,000

54 Drivers made more than $80,000

18 Drivers made more than $90,000

8 Drivers made more than $100,000. Top Driver made $117,000 (Source WTMJ)

(The average private bus driver makes $9-13 an hour (about 20,000 yr) with no pension, or healthcare).

AND WE ARE SUPPOSED TO CONTINUE PAYING 100% OF THEIR GENEROUS RETIREMENT

THEY HAVE SHUT DOWN SCHOOLS AS THEY DON'T WANT TO PAY 5.8% OF IT THEMSELVES ....REALLY?

Please send to everyone you know....

1. Damn straight garbage men should make over 70 grand a year
   
That's dangerous and back breaking work, and there is exposure to dangerous waste, rats and disease.

Maybe 50 years ago ya ****in' moron! Nowadays much of it is automated and the union has made sure ya don't have to pick up any more than 50 lbs! If it weighs more than that, they can leave it right there on the curb!

Ya ever read all the rules a city has about how you can set your garbage out? Apparently not, because if ya did, you'd know if it ain't wrapped in plastic, or in a can, they won't touch it!
I'm the guy your mother warned you about!

DUmmies don't need garbage desposal...they just toss it out the window of the BUICK while it's moving.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Makes sense to me. Ever drivin' thru these DemonRat enclaves? Looks like they don't need a landfill. The whole damn city looks like one!

Those are the same numbers I posted last week.  Guess the DUmmies want to ignore it in the e-mails too.  I always thought garbage men made less than $30k.  I should find out what our guys make in Las Vegas.  

Never mind, I believe our garbage men are private sector jobs.  The company is Republic.  BAD BAD WORD!!!!!111

Maybe not a lot of money,  but they have a ball on the job!
