THIS WEEK’S WEB POLL:
As a general rule, should Gilroy police officers be paid significantly more than Gilroy firefighters?
Yes: 6 No: 6
â– No. There should be no ‘general rules’ as far as compensation for public employees is concerned.
â– YES, since being a cop is a daily life threatening job.
â– No their pay should be comparable.
â– No. This is a small town, not San Jose or San Francisco. When there is danger here, it’s just as grave for both.
â– Yes. However, another way of putting it is: firefighters should be paid less than police.
â– Yes. Police officers are put in danger more often than firefighters. How much more is up for debate.
â– No. It would not be right to say one is more important than the other through a significant pay differential.
