I think the Parks workers union is the most out of whack of any city department. You have summer students earning $20/hr to nap in trucks and weed whack 3 parks a day. It's a culture of laziness that has to be seen to be believed. I completely support city council contracting out as much as possible - Which is what's happening, nothing to do with budget cuts, the money is just starting to be better spent.
And if the budget is blown, maybe stop hiring a live band to play at the lame Stampede breakfast.
Worst job ever.
