typically 6 figures and 90% pension my ass.
My dad retired as a district chief (thats pretty high up) from a major metropolitan area. undergrad in construction management and a masters in fire science. I think his salary at retirement was in the low 60's. his pension is somewhere in the 60% range of that I think?
