its rediculous in todays economy where ” civil servants ” make more money than comparable jobs in the private market… am i the only one who feels this way??? just look at all levels of gov’t employees, they work 15 -20 years then retire at 80% of their salary and we are stuck with paying them for 40 years, othe rstates across country are having trouble with this its called unfunded mandates,…states cannot continue to pay these crooks so much for so long,.. i personally feel they are legal thieves,….all the while raising taxes for this and for that ……..the local and state level should mandate a 25 yeaqr retiremnet a service then only start to pay this retirement out when the employee reaches the age of 62-65 …like social security……and we as taxpayers do not have to pay these people fro 40 years and go broke as a state doing it.. It used to be that you worked for the civil service ” to serve ” and for the job security, but sacrificed salary for what you could make in the private market,….now they have it all salary,security and huge retriement packages,….and taxpayers are going broke all over the country trying to keep up…….its rediculous, backwards, and wrong…vote them all out is what i say, and vote in proven private markets success stories who are not trying to get rich on the taxpayers, who already have been successful in business or private ventures and who understand the proper roles of “civil servants” ,…..to serve the public, not steal from them….chc

Watch your back George,. The nlast time I had a conversation with Comm. Valentino, his opinion of your honesty wasn’t that high. He could be setting you up for the fall he was waiting on. Or birds of a feather! You know the rest.

Here we go. Let’s give this guy a raise since we fired him before and that should make up for our mistake. While we’re at it, let’s take that stupid title off. We all know he’s here for at least ever how long it takes him to suck his retirement out of the State. Bot were we stupid. Why did we do George like that. I’ve done so much painting for him in the past. I’m sorry George. I’ll make my end up on a fresh coat of paint to one of your homes.

Gee– how do you spell full retirement. Maybe there is hope some day for the county– Gene would like to be Lt. Gov. for the state and after this term Wilson can go home. Escambia county beats any TV program for fun and games.

This is why they want a 4 cents gas hike…so they can raise salaries when these guys make more than they should already!
