You do seem fond of the old hyperbole to "back" your arguments.mishkalucy wrote: »I watched Jimmy Kelly(Unite)on Vincent on Tuesday and nearly fell of the chair when he said "Well look, we know there are 77 people in the public sector who are on more that 500.000 a year, but I don't think anyone is going to lose sleep over that"
:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
Has he lost his fu*king marbles?
That's 38.5 million a year on 77 peoples salaries and no-one is going to lose sleep over it?
And the government have the cheek to target special need kids?
Yes, they're entitled to it, they're very good librarians and paper clip tray fillers:rolleyes:

Good for you, they should get you to weed out the incompetent ones who got pay rises due to the buggins turn system, instead of capability and performance;)
An examination of the performance-related pay/promotions system by the Comptroller and Auditor General in 2011 offered little hope for improvement. Concern was expressed that pay and advancement decisions did not reflect actual performance; that increments were paid in advance of performance assessments and that senior managers were not sufficiently engaged.
Fewer than one-in-five civil servants believe laziness or incompetence is being appropriately addressed, according to an internal survey.
I've seen just as many problems in the Irish private sector, that have cost the Irish Taxpayer 100's of billions, but they are being hushed up and swept under the carpet. I wonder why that is

"Shhhhhh !" Problems in the private sector is not justification for problems in the public sector
Thats right just talk about the 18 billion problem, not the 200 bilion for anglo, scama, seanie, bertie and pals, lets ignore that, and complain about ordinary public sector workers. After all how will the race to the bottom between ordinary workers go ahead, if the ordinary people work that one out. 0 -

Swept under the carpet? we are breaking our back paying for their mistakes,
We are loosing front line services because the money is not there to fund them, instead overpaid pen pushers in the office with are entitled to large wages. The country is broke. We borrow money to pay wages. .... :rolleyes:0 -

Didn't mean you, I meant the paperclip tray comment. These threads always purport to be aimed at just senior public servants, but it always ends up that anyone in the public sector administrative area gets it in the neck. But 22k entry level for a clerical officer - in fairness that's just robbing the country blind...
Shhhhh now, you'll spoil the duped public vs private workers race to the bottom, then what will the golden circle do when the ordinary public cop on ?

I dare you to find one, just one . . .;):D:)
Closest I could find

Ireland's richest man is Pallonji Mistry, a low profile Indian tycoon, who took out Irish citizenship in 2003. His wife Patsi was born on Dublin's Hatch Street. Mistry has a 18.2 per cent of the Indian Tata group, which had interests ranging from chemicals and steel to hotels and offices. It also owns Jaguar cars. Mistry is worth €7.4bn. That's the equivalent of everyone in Ireland's income tax for six months. Forbes magazine suggests that he's the 96th richest man on the planet.
Income tax: allowances, reliefs and tax credits
Under the Irish income tax system, resident individuals are entitled to what are known as allowances or 'tax credits' that serve to reduce their income tax liabilities (see Leaflet IT1 - Tax Credits, Reliefs & Rates for 2009 and 2010 for details).
Allowances / Tax Credits x Income within the charge to Irish tax / Total worldwide income.
Income from a non-Irish sourced employment, attributable to the performance in the State of the duties of that employment, is chargeable to Irish income tax and subject to the Pay As You Earn (PAYE) system of tax deduction at source, whether or not such income is remitted into the State. If you are resident in the State for Irish tax purposes for the tax year that the income is earned, you may be entitled to full personal tax credits and reliefs (see Leaflet IT 1 - Tax Credits, Reliefs & Rates for 2009 and 2010). Income from a foreign employment that is related to duties performed outside the State is also taxable in Ireland but if you are not domiciled in the State, such income is only taxable to the extent it is remitted or brought into the State (see Non-domiciled individuals and the remittance basis of assessment).
not sure how much tax he pays after he claims his tax free credits:pac::pac:0 -
I bet your not, unlike ordinary workers.0 -

Well neither do you:p
And why should we not know ? Why, like the names of the private bondholders we're paying bilions of taxpayers money to, is it being kept secret ? Are seanie, bertie, and fingers bondholders ? Inda's cousin perhaps ? Fiasco Phil's brother in law ? Why are these bondholders names not being released ? 0 -

I never said we shouldn't know;)
Let me think who would have the power to reveal these things?
Politicians, and yet they don't
more over paid incompetent public services workers
