State parks uses about 3millon dollars in state taxes but they are not allowed enough fee increases to make 3 millon.
Most state employees have not gotten a raise in 3 years and now they are taking 2.5% from each employee for PERA and this is equal to a 2.5% pay cut. Last year most state employees took 8 furlough days.
Now before you think we are geting RICH I had a 5 year plan to get up to my pay up to where I was geting payed in the private sector. That was 10 years ago and before I beacame a stste employee I made 55k and now its still 42K so I hope my PERA retirement makes up for this in my golden years.
And what relly pissess me off is they stared a pay for performance program but the Joint budget committe will not FUND the program! I dont know how much longer I can work for the people of colorado
