[QUOTE="donna723, post: 388441, member: 1883"] No, this is gross pay, the monthly base rate of pay, and none of us are eligible for any overtime. State employees here are paid so-much a month, not hourly rates or weekly. They divide that amount in half and you get half in the middle of the month and half at the end. So we get the same amount for February with 28 days as we get for October with 31 days. And pay raises (if we ever got one!) are figured in "steps" and one step isn't usually much. So $150 a month is a whooooole lot of steps! It would still bother me (a lot!) if it was anyone else, but knowing that it's this particular person, the joke of the institution, the one famous for doing almost no work but constantly whining and complaining and getting out of all the S&!# that the rest of us have had to do all these years, that just sets me off in screaming fits! And when she retires in another few years, she won't have to pinch pennies nearly as tightly as I am! [/QUOTE]
