Erie County Money Tree? Health Commissioner Pocketed Nearly $20k To Not Even Work; Receives $144/hr In OT PayMoney doesn’t grow on trees, unless you’re Erie County Health Commissioner Dr. Gale Burstein. For her, the COVID-19 pandemic has the money crop thriving in her favor.
She’s amassed over $166,000 in overtime pay since March. Her overtime rate; $144.785 per hour. That’s 1.5x her normal pay rate and in addition to her normal $96.523 per hour ($200,768 salary).

You can not blame the person on the receiving end. You need to blame the people who created the contracts that pay out compensation like they do.

No put the blame where it belongs Jeff. The people who created the contracts.
I have nothing against people being paid over time.

I wonder how many hours at time and 1/2 it took her to come with that brilliant scheme to take days or even weeks to notify those who tested positive for Coronavirus, thereby allowing them to unwittingly continue spreading the disease, while emphasizing rapid notice to those who tested negative. Adding a daily barrage of criticism of county residents for failure to mask and distance in order to cover up for the mess they were creating...that prolly took a few hours at time and 1/2 too. And why in hell isn’t it a salaried position in the first place? Are we paying time & 1/2 to Poloncarz too? Some might say that the county would be better off if both reduced their hours...say, maybe, to zero.

Elected officials do not get overtime. Poloncarz gets no OT. Same for all the other Elected folk, in Amherst, Cheektowaga, Buffalo and so on.
Even as a great rock is not shaken by the wind, the wise man is not shaken by praise or by blame.
