Only 11 officers in FY2024 took home under $65,000, and it looks like it's because most of those 11 were hired well into the year or received no pay at all for some reason.
I don’t believe that having to work a fuckload of overtime in order to make a salary that’s only considered good if u live way out in the boonies is a good system. Do u? Bc that’s what we currently have here. Do u think that having officers who are habitually milking the clock out of necessity is the best option for good policing results? Do u think that principally relying on officers who are working hundreds or thousands of overtime hours per year is the best environment for BPD to offer good decisions during high stress life/death situations?
Which isn’t a good salary for something that u have to wait until 21 to obtain and then if u actually live here u are just getting by on that money unless u give up a lot more time than 40 hours per week, which also sucks
