So apparently these clerical workers have been offered 190k a year, compelte job security, a month of paid vacation, 14 sick days, and a plethora of other benefits...and they want more.
I live in Los Angeles and the news reports here state the 190k figure is top end compensation (newbies don't earn anywhere near that much); also, the 190k figure is total compensation, not just salary. If you take out the non-paycheck items (insurance, pension, etc), the actual on the paycheck, "put it in the bank" salary is fairly reasonable. The reports here have the unions more agitated over the outsourcing of jobs currently in place in L.A. Harbor to other places and countries. The unions are demanding job security and the management appears to be balking at the idea. The management states there has been no outsourcing and there are no plans to outsource. The unions, on their part, seem unable to produce any eveidence of an outsourcing policy or problem...
