Same thing with LIPA, our "not-for-profit" electric company. 3 months out of 4 I get an estimated bill, or a card to mark. I wouldn't mind marking the card if Richie Kessel and his political cronies weren't making 6 figure salaries for heading up a "not-for-profit" utility. 2/3rd of LIPA employees make more than 100K a year. Can a few of those leeches and hire some meter readers for $25K a year  |
I'll save my opinions about lawyers.I can also look past bitching about the salary of "not for profit" companies(put in dummies so you get bad ideas).But please,try not to belittle meter readers.We have installed over 7,000 transponders for drive-by readings within the past year at our water department and that is a lot of work .
Irony is;.... a lawyer calling ANYONE else "leeches".
