Unlike your pension, which is generously funded by the taxpayers of New York, the taxpayers of New Jersey don’t contribute to my earnings.Maybe sometime you will realize that not all activities at a state university are funded by the state (PS: this proportion looks like it’s going to get even smaller with the help of the Obese Governor). Maybe not. |

So none of the facilities were paid for by the state and the fees are all paid for by the students or their parents? Sounds like about as much bullshit as what you teach. And yes, my very generous pension and my equally generous medical coverage, to some extent, is paid for by the taxpayers. Knowing that it sticks in your craw makes it all the sweeter. |

So much lack of understanding so little reading comprehension. Let’s try and simplify this so you possibly can read to the end before the Alzheimer’s kicks in:—So none of the facilities were paid for by the state and the fees are all paid for by the students or their parents? I teach in the Werblin Recreation Center, named after Sonny Werblin. Look him up. But, yes, what I do is not funded by the state, but by students (and parents, and loans, and donations). —And yes, my very generous pension and my equally generous medical coverage, to some extent, is paid for by the taxpayers. Knowing that it sticks in your craw makes it all the sweeter. No. Lucky you. All the best. Enjoy your (seemingly) miserable life as long as you can. What I’m complaining about is that you are perfectly happy to accept the taxpayer subsidy of your retirement, while trying to deny it to others no less worthy than yourself. |

Posted by Train Dude on Fri Sep 23 21:51:16 2011, in response to Re: Not the first time he said it, posted by JohnL on Fri Sep 23 21:04:28 2011. Let me try to explain it to you despite the obvious lack of size and functionality of what we laughingly refer to as your brain. When I was employed by the NYCT, I was given certain duties for which I was compensated. Also, during my employment, I was promised certain benefits upon my retirement. As I rose through the ranks, my salary and responsibility increased. Of course on holidays, when you were making your family miserable by being home with them, I was likely performing my assigned duties. When you were all cozy during snow storms, I was likely performing my duties. When you were hiding under your bed during emergencies like floods, collisions and even 9/11, I was responding to those emergencies.So now I'm retired after fulfilling my part of the bargain to the NYCT, the MTA and the people of NY. In return, I get those same benefits that I partially paid for and for which I earned every day that I was employed. For the record, I retired with over 320 sick days on the books and over 110 vacation days that were unused. So for a little shithead like you to insinuate that I didn't earn that pension, you've succeeded in annoying me. But then, for the 30 or 40 past and current NYCT employees who post here, let me say this. You don't like it - too fucking bad. Those who are collecting, may they collect forever and those who will collect - may they collect soon and reap their rewards too. As for my miserable life, you have no idea how miserable having a great family, great friends and time & money to do most of what I want to do for the rest of my life, can make you. I hope that you are never that miserable. |
