NYC Writes an I.O.U?

Remember the blizzard that slammed the east coast a few weeks back? New York City was reduced to begging citizens to shovel out sidewalks, bus stops and driveways....but mayor islamo-commie was willing to pay $19.14 an hour....but only if you had some for m of identification.

• imagine that - ID to shovel snow, but not to vote....hmmmmm

Guess what's been happening since?

• It was a snow job. A New Yorker who signed up to shovel snow this winter claimed he’s yet to be fully paid for his work — collecting a measly $300 instead of what he thought would be a $3,600 windfall.

  Jacob Jackson signed up to be an emergency snow shoveler in November, when pay was listed as $19.14 per hour, with overtime pay of $28.71, he said in a Manhattan Federal Court lawsuit against the city. He was called to help clear city streets and sidewalks once in December and another 10 days in January, working out of a Sanitation Department garage in Brooklyn.

  On Feb. 23 — after the city was slammed by a massive blizzard which dumped more than 19 inches of snow — the pay jumped to $30 an hour, $45 an hour with overtime. Even though Jackson logged 40 hours of back-breaking shoveling between Feb. 22 and Feb. 28, he was paid at the $19.14 rate — for only eight hours of work — collecting just $153.12, he said in court papers.

  “The remaining 32 hours being completely unpaid,” he said in the legal filing. Jackson received only one other paycheck before that — also for $153.12 — for shoveling earlier that same month. He allegedly hasn’t been paid at all for his work in December and January, he said in the filing.

New York seems only slightly less insolvent that Chicago but this is still amusing....and very communist in nature.
