Garbage-men making more than teachers!

The local Kaua'i Newspaper  reported that some solid waste employee's, also known as garbage-men, make close to $40,000 in overtime alone, not to mention their salary which is close to the same.
Garbage-men making more than teachers, where's the logic or justice?

You've got to love it, overpaid council-members looking into overpaid garbageman! This should get interesting as this battle continues we will get to see whose garbage smells worse, the garbage-mans, or the county-councils. Another case of the pot calling the kettle black.

I remember when I was a kid, the joke was that you could make $1.50 an hour and all you could eat, if you wanted to be a garbage man.

Now Garbage men make more than many PhD's.

There's something wrong with the system when garbage-men, bus drivers and part time county council members make more than teachers.
