Nurse in California earns $270,000 in salary with Overtime

I don't begrudge this nurse who works in the CA prison system. There is no suggestion that she did anything untoward or improper. What is improper is a system which allows state employees, through a "generous" availing of overtime get anywhere near to a point where they earn anywhere near this type of money at taxpayer expense. California's anti-competitive wage/hour laws don't help matters. Hopefully this egregious case will spur a deeper examination of current practices resulting in reform down the road.
