Its time to throw all exsisting ECUA representatives up for re-election out of office in Nov. They should hav;e known the voters would not approve of the increase. Its time for the voters to revolt when election time comes around.

I also feel their pain about the lack of pay raises, but not as much as the state workers at the health department. Those people haven’t had a raise in 7 years! And they gave up the 3% so others could continue to work and get paid in the drop programs. It’s very sad the way the State treats their employees.

Note to ECUA management: Place ad for employment and list starting pay at 10% less than current rate. Also, let applicate know you provide group insurance ,but employee pays 100%. In addition, a retirement plan is provided, but the plan is 100% employee self funded.
Do this, and you’ll have several hundred applicants to replace the current ones that feel they are being taken advantage of.

This is the same thing Gonzalez utilities in Cantonment said about there 18.6% increase a month and a half ago. the old saying is (if you lay with dogs you will get flees).

ECUA does a wonderful job. I think they deserve more. Maybe we can all put in an extra dollar each month to give their wonderful employees also.

So now can we have a raise boss?? It’s been 4 years! (Not counting last years so called 3% to cover the 3% that Florida Retirement started forcing us to contribute).

I would support the rate hike if it contributed to employee appreciation, but I have no confidence in that.

I’m thinking of raising my rates, to be used for “infratructure repairs and improvments.” That’s also known as “pimping out my new crib.”
