While I don't bemoan any worker doing what they can to make money, it does make me wonder why they can't hire more workers if there seems to be so many overtime hours available.
Liang Zhao Zhang’s job is to clean up BART stations in downtown San Francisco and clean up he does: He swept in $162,000 in overtime pay last year, records show.
Call Zhang the super janitor, an extraordinarily high earner in a field where the beloved school custodian rarely brings home more than $50,000 a year.
Zhang grossed $235,000 in 2015, four times more than his base pay as a janitor. Benefits brought his total cost of employment at the rail agency to more than $270,000. And records show this isn’t the first time he raked in six-figure compensation at BART. Zhang received a combined $682,000 in pay and benefits over the last three years.
“Where do I sign up?” joked Lionel Hsu, a BART rider on Tuesday.
He should get employee of the year for the last three years... I can't even get my employees to show up or do their job... probably because I don't have overtime... they don't want to hire more because benefits cost are high, unemployment insurance is a drain, and the people out there are filled with lazy people who complain about working and don't even work...
As someone who takes BART, and has made the mistake of even considering to attempt using one of their bathrooms, I have absolutely no problem with this.
Oh, and the escalators in the station are almost always closed in the morning. Not because they're broken. Because beggars crap on it, in it, and underneath it.
OKay I found some context. 58K base pay. Lets call that $28 an hour. Working a bit of backwards math. ?Sat and Sun doubletime?
The guy is 100 hours plus
Oooh found better.
1420.73 regular hours
24 hours of protected sick leave
192 of vacation hours
48 hours of holiday hours
3.27 of administrative leave
For overtime he did:
63 hours of "holiday work"
1821.53 hours of time and a half (1.5 for regular day off 1).
601 hours of double time (2 for regular day off 2)
He signs up for every possible overtime apparently according to better articles.
