Spring

You know it's almost Spring when the girls start showing their BellyButtons.
I want this job
If there's one thing better than a free lunch, it's getting paid for it.
And Quincy Police Chief Robert F. Crowley does - nearly $150 a week.
He also gets paid to "read" - $91 a week, to cover the cost of reading material related to law enforcement work.
: snip :
The amount paid in some benefits varies among department employees because it is based on hourly wages. Crowley, the chief, receives $7,747 a year for lunch, $4,749 for reading, $1,500 for longevity, and $975 for uniforms.
$30 a day for lunch? That aint the Mickey Dee's drivethrough, and $20 a day in magazines? This is nothing short of embezzlement of taxpayers' money, brought to you via greedy, overpaid, union bosses.
How 'bout we cut this crap before we start laying off teachers? Why don't we eliminate these "benefits" before we go blame the Governor's proposed budget cuts?
