Raccoon, actually one of the more important jobs in a community. You'll notice it pretty quick if they stop coming to work.

Didi,
Yes it’s important, but not $130k per year important.
Yeah it’s important, but not $130k a year important.

Pandora,
you are failing to understand that the salary is not based on how important/cool your work is. It's based on the amount of jobs available and the amount of people willing to do that work.
If everybody applies to be a Garbage Collector, the salary will go down to minimum wage. On the other hand, if nobody applies for the Garbage Collector job, then the salary will go up significantly.

Wrong. They’re unionized. So their salaries are artificially inflated.
You can tell me there wouldn’t be a line around the block to get paid $130k a year for working 40 hours a week.

The power of the Teamsters union:
Quote: Raccoon
Teamster union contract. $40 an hour in January + medical and pension paid 100% by my employer. There’s guaranteed overtime too, so gross around $130k + the other perks. We also get a 100k severance payout the day we retire.
They don't say what the overtime rate is but we can guess 2x normal rate.

Looking at this, now I can see the world is upside down. I see no realtors have told us what they earn and car salesmen ?

I think the garbage man is the smartest guy in this list. Love the side gig of selling what he picks up.
