I stand corrected. Thank you. I heard QW9 was dumping for awhile and then stoped. Glad to hear that was untrue. Keep up the good work over there.

yeah for this month and next month. I wish I could take a picture and show you all the folders I had to place to retirement... But at this point it doesn't matter how much lower we go if the Mayor won't approve for a class.

First the reason why the junior guys need to stop up is because it is our bodies and job. The senior guy has one foot out the door and dont care. The junior guys have 15 to 19 years to go. The problem is that doing the right thing isnt easy which is why the junior guys dont stick together and stay out. True leaders dont normally exist in this job most of the guys are sheep. If everyone else stays out then I will stay out. It is a shame but that is how most of the junior guys think and the rest says f it. I will run and dump and what will be will be.

Junior guys are still following blindly and if and when their are layoffs they may finally realized they were just running themselves out of a job. Maybe then people will be scared but it will be to late. Weather they are rumors or not its serious enough to step back and look at the way things are progressing in this department for the better of the city and not the worker. I like to be a positive thinker but the writing is all over the wall. Wake up people, play time is over.
I guess that would be a legit reason to the scare tactics. Too bad it isn't working. I wish those guys that are ruining the job would just chill out for now and start running and dumping once the economy gets better...

Is it possible for you to give us some sort of number of how many retired last month? Also do you know if we are still over head count?

We will be lucky if they dont have layoffs. We wont have another class for at least 2 years. But when they do have another class that class will be tier V which would be a 25 year penision.

Would 40 be the average number that retire in a given month more or less, right Epyon?

I agree with DSNYSANMAN, that there won't be any new hires until 2011.
