10 Comments on NYC pays this fireman $125K a year to do absolutely nothing

1. So, is it now legal to piss all over this douche’s legs?

2. After reading this, not sure if he is the douche.
   The system and the unions are definitely douches though.
   Ridiculous!

3. It’s stories like this, and the rubber rooms for teachers that can’t be fired, that make you wish average citizens could sue elected officials for WASTING their tax money.

4. Does he have to be a resident of NYC?
   If not he could retire to Florida.

   Just a bus ticket away.

5. You mean he should take the money and sun?

   ?

6. You could substituted “New York” for “Chicago” and it would still be a true story…

7. “New York values”

8. In 2006, he became a “priority hire” — promoted to President as part of the country’s settlement of a federal racial-discrimination.

   The promotion was supposed to automatically make him President with seniority since he was a Black litigant. It would have net him about $400,000 annually, or $335,000 more than he made as Community Organizer.

   But four days after he entered the Presidency, he was told to report for a hearing while on vacation in Hawaii.

   When he showed up, he was asked for his cellphone number and told he no longer had to show up as commander in chief.

   He said he asked why and where he should show up instead and was told: “You work for us. We don’t work for you. We’ll call you — don’t call us.”

   He has yet to be fully assigned as President and conducts his business purely with a cell phone and a pen.

9. Too many people not only looking for a deal like his, but getting it.

10. I always thought I was pretty damn tough. I watched a friend of mine,a fireman, walk into
    a burning building. Just to make sure it was empty. It was.
    He jumped thru a first floor window to get back out.
    I could never do that.
    not for any amount of money.
