That's total and utter crap. Raping their community of hard earned money. The system is broke if a police officer is make over 200K, even a captain. Its rediculous

You talking unions, cops or both?

Those numbers seem way too high. The 'total compensation' part is what bothers me. What is included in total compensation? Could it be $$ doled out in medical care? Expensive, but mandated, training? I don't imagine a police officer making upper 200K a year in salary.

I believe a significant chunk of "total compensation" is overtime. I am sure there are other factors, but cops can (and do) rack up a lot of excess hours at time and half or higher.

Yeah your probably right. Over time is a f8cking racket in the police departments.




Anybody remember The Wire second season where the old timers would sit around and play cards while on duty and when they got switched to the new area they did the same thing and when asked any concerns the one guy said laughing "who approves the over time?" Its a joke to them because their robbing mutherf*cker their suppose to be protecting and serving.

My understaning of total compinsation would be pay plus benefits. Training would not be considered compensation.
