Your list number is kind of high, but nobody really knows what number they are going to get to. They say there is going to be alot of retirees over the next couple of years because back in 1988, 1989, 1990 the sanitation dept. hired alot of people, and they are coming up on there twentieth year which makes them eligible for retirement. Good luck to you.....
Alot of guys are staying on the job because the cost of living is gettng higher and higher.......
How is the current collapse of the financial markets going to effect sanitation? do you guys forsee less hiring? Pay cuts? More people taking the exam?

Well as the job becomes more known more and more people are going to take the test. The only thing i see effecting sanitation is less people retiring than usual.
It has a major impact on sanitation and all the other departments. The key thing you have to remember is that the city derives alot of its revenue from taxes these financial firms pay on their revenues and taxes on their employees compensations. These financial firms have been losing billions upon billions of dollars and compensations (salaries & bonuses) having been coming down as well as there's lots of umemployment. So the city government loses out on all that money as well. When there's less revenue coming in on the city budget, that's when you start seeing individual tightening of the belts for the various city departments and that means cutbacks, hiring freezes, loss of benefits, etc.............
The real problem is that it's going to be "doom and gloom" for awhile before things start to turn around.
