High level State of California staff is jumping for joy at the order by Arnold to put the workers under them on furlough.
"During furlough weeks between February 2009 and April 2010, state departments paid at least $1.6 million in overtime to salaried state workers who are not typically eligible to receive it, according to data provided by the state controller's office. At least 14 employees took home more than $10,000 in overtime payments during that period.
The payments were allowed because during furlough weeks, federal law requires the state to temporarily classify most salaried workers as hourly employees so their pay can legally be reduced."
This is why we now to get rid of the ego driven amateurs running the State. Every when they think they are doing the right thing, they are wrong.
Now you know why Arnold has a 22% approval rating, lower than Gray Davis when we threw him out of office.
It is 149 days and counting--then we might even get a budget.
