[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]40,000,000 divided by 26,000 employees works out to around $1600 per employee as an average.

My best guess is that MCPS will muddle through it and then fight tooth and nail against pay increases for teachers.  I got tired of teaching in FCPS,MD watching us get a pay increase but then also having our share of insurance go up and cancel out any take home salary increase.  It sucked and was demoralizing for newer staff who can barely make it in any school system due to low pay and poor support.

Adjusted for inflation pay at each step goes down every year.  Hard to recommend teaching for college graduates based on the economics of this area and college costs now.

Teachers get paid salaries competitive with nurses, mid-level health care providers, and most public sector jobs.

By and large, the problem isn't pay- it is workload.[/quote]
Most of those jobs get overtime pay. [/quote]

It the county jobs. [/quote]
