Reply to comment by bittoxic00 in Mayor Adams plows ahead with plan to privatize health benefits for 250,000 NYC municipal retirees by mowotlarx

DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT PEOPLE WHO BEGAN THEIR CAREER 20 AND 30 YEARS AGO DON'T START AT THE SAME STARTING SALARY THAT PEOPLE DO NOW?!?

The city doesn't increase the salaries of veteran workers to be in parity with brand new hires as a rule. There are people who began here making $25k (or less) when they started. There are people who have worked here for decades making an hourly wage and are still only making $18/hr.

Do you have an example, I just find it unbelievable and if you had proof it would be cool, so there are child specialists working for 30 years that make less than a brand new hire, Idk about that
