Salaries Out of Control?

I have a quiz for you:

• I was made aware today of a large concern with 16,000 employees whose employees made an average of $70,000 dollars each in 2006. In this concern, the highest paid employee received $240,183.

You need to think about those numbers for a minute before you guess. My conclusion was that very few of the 16,000 employees earned what any rational person would call an average income.

What is the concern? Answer tomorrow!

• The Answer: the city of Boston, Massachusetts!

Read about it here. Highest paid city employee is a police lieutenant who made the $240,183 last year! Sounds sensible to me! More analysis later!
