Need a job? ... San Francisco "Poop Patrollers" Make $185,000

We wish we could say this was a satire piece, but a new story in the San Francisco Chronicle reveals just how lucrative collecting shite actually is.
It's but the latest in a string of shocking revelations to hit headlines throughout the summer exposing how deep San Francisco's crisis of vast amounts of vagrant-generated feces covering its public streets actually runs (no pun intended).
We detailed last week how city authorities have finally decided to do something after thousands of feces complaints (during only one week in July, over 16,000 were recorded), the cancellation of a major medical convention and an outraged new Mayor, London Breed, who was absolutely shocked after walking through her city: they established a professional "poop patrol".
quote:
As described when the city initially unveiled the plan, the patrol will consist of a team of five staffers donning protective gear and patrol the alleys around Polk Street and other "brown zones" in search of everything from hepatitis-laden Hershey squirts to worm-infested-logs. At the Poop Patrol's disposal will be a special vehicle equipped with a steam cleaner and disinfectant.
The teams will begin their shifts in the afternoon, spotting and cleaning piles of feces before the city receives complaints in order "to be proactive" in the words of the Public Works director Mohammed Nuru, co-creator of the poop patrol initiative.
While at first glance it doesn't sound like the type of job people will be knocking down human resources doors to apply for, the SF Chronicle has revealed just how much each member of this apparently elite "poop patrol" team will cost the city: $184,678 in salary and benefits.

What’s misleading about it? Benefits are earned by employees, just like salary or wages.

In San Francisco...that MAY get you an unfurnished studio apartment in a decent area.

ETA: I'm wrong. Downvoted myself.

The fact that the overwhelming majority of people have no idea the value of even their own benefits package?
While I agree this is a more accurate number and should be a major reference point especially for govt costs... but in this case it’s being used to help strip context and create shock - not to better inform

I read it as the whole team of 5 costs $185k.
Is that not correct?
ETA: I'm wrong. Need coffee...lulz

It’s 74k salary, 110,000 in benefits. Illustrating that if California didn’t mandate such crazy benefits loop patrollers could take home a lot more cash.

So it’s easier for the city to pay an outrageous salary than it is to make these dregs stop shitting on the sidewalk.
I think the homeless of SF should demand better poopers and mob rule into the mayors private potty to poop.
It’s not fair afterall, that she has a private pooper.

Why would anyone with an IQ above 75 choose to live in San Francisco?
