Sounds like they were sitting pretty.

"The" famous jingle you say.

When I picked up the first couple of cases, the guy behind the counter insisted we sing the jingle together. "C'mon you know it."

Sadly we knew both of them. That one, and Schaefer City.

Marketing. It's a thing.

NYC Hotel Housekeepers' Pay to Hit $61 an Hour

New York City hotel owners and the main hotel union reached an eight-year contract that will lift average housekeeper pay.

skift.com

So they get a raise from just under $40 hr to $61 a hour. Thats over 100,000 a year to change dirty sheets

I’ll bet that’s on the list of “Jobs Nobody Wants” the diseased say we need illegals to fill.

The only part I remember was the hideous picture of MM in a onesie (although true to life). When the laughter stopped, well POOF!

All make too much money. But Newsday can’t even add for the correct totals. I did two and stopped.
So they are misleading the readers .

The chart didn’t mention job titles, and I was unable to read the blurry article. Without knowing that, it is impossible to gauge salaries. That said, for a publicly traded company of PSEG’s size those would be modest salaries for top executives.

Seems much more than common folk. No wonder highest rates charged to us.

Perhaps correct, but we are not a communist economy…..we have a capitalist system, and people are rewarded based on their abilities, and what they bring to the table.

Explain capitalism and PSEG in the same paragraph.
