Because it's perfectly OK for the brave Firemen to park the fire truck in the red zone while 5 grown men go grocery shopping/or eat at the same restaurant as the lowdown, rotten police officers.
And the good taxpayer doesn't mind a bit that the nice fireman sleeps for 1/3 of his shift and plays video games/watches TV for the other 2/3.
Or that the knight in shining armor Firemen negotiated a "4 man per truck" minimum staffing requirement "for safety" (AND NOT MANDATORY OVERTIME) because of the great number of structure fires that still occur in 2011...
35 months and counting...
The day that I receive my first "100k CALPERS Retirement check" I am going to scan it and post if every day for a month here on PARF.
