Why do you wish WCO's were on salary?
i was in charge of 270 employees at one time .

we were not allowed much overtime ,so things got bad at night and on weekends.

then top bosses decided that we be put on SALARY.

they paid us MORE than the regular 40 hr week but we could set our own hrs ,like come out at night or when WE felt we could do most good.

i cant see PGC allowing LOTS of overtime,so WCO is not going tobe able to come out OR able to get in truck and just go without be authorized to do so on OVERTIME.

by being on SALARY , wco would be in charge, if he felt that he needed to be out at 2 am, off he goes.

at least thats way it worked for us.

if the overtime is available ,then no need to do this but from what i heard at meeting with rep.hanna,there is not money for LOTS of overtime.
We do set our own hours and have a bank of overtime to use, However I dont know a single WCO that doesnt "Donate" time during the year. This isnt a normal 9-5 job its a lifestyle.
So if my district needs attention at 2 am I am out there.
