No city employee gets paid enough, but luckily, with overtime ,they can make over 100k a year and they retire after 22.5 years, these jobs have a waiting list for that reason. Even after 5 years they make over 83k base, plus overtime, some people make close to 200k, which is insane for what they do. To put that in perspective, a teacher with student loans and 8 years of college for example, makes 81k after 5 years and a Ph.D, and they rarely get overtime. So for a job that requires only a high school diploma, they get paid really well (taking into account the overtime which is guaranteed and salary after 5 years.)

[@jayprimo]

No, this job has a waiting list because it requires no skill outside of a CDL (which they train and provide for), no college degree, and still hire people with criminal records. No other agency has wait lists like this, because the requirement are much stricter or require certain levels of skill.

[@mikepizza76]

The overtime is never guaranteed. And is sometimes even forced upon you, with the threat of disciplinary action against you if you can't stay late or can't work a day that you were supposed to be off for. As for the higher wagers ($200K) that were mentioned, that for the most part is not the Sanitation Worker. That was mostly Supervisors and up. And even for them that is an abnormalitie. For the last 2 years of dealing with Covid, put most to work 7 days a week, some for months at a time. So it's really not fair to compare a teacher and a manual labored job for 7 days a week for months at a time, with no summers and winter recesses off, and some holidays worked as well. And for the snow days those 7 days a week days are 12 hours long of driving. And let's not forget that Sanitation Worker is in the top 5 of most dangerous jobs yearly, Google it.

I don't understand why he didn't return to his profession. That job is definitely not worth it if you managed to get through college. That job is for a ex con that can't get anything else

[@1QKGLH]

The worst part of being a NYC sanitation worker is having to live in NYC LOL. Ok, seriously, good on you Anthony for taking that job after making almost 6 figures on Broadway. Do you know how many people would have turned their noses up at a. being a sanitation worker and b. taking a 'pay cut' even though they aren't working? You're wise for realizing that, the long haul, this is a high-paying job. 5:48 - GOOD TOSS!!

One thing that strikes me as a Brit watching these episodes is just how much you guys earn in the US. Pay in the UK is far lower for similar roles

[@jackwilson9572]

Isn't your money more valuable compared to the dollar?

[@jjo7279]

Cost of living is higher in the US compared to most parts of the UK (except London).

[@keypeng4164]

In the US you can go bankrupt for losing your job and running into an unexpected health emergency. I believe the UK has a much more stable social safety net.

I remember back in the 70s when NYC was using the old Leach Sanicruiser Rear-Loader on a Mack COE chassis... The rear loader brand might have changed (Leach went out of business), but they look like they've still sticking with Macks, although now they're now using the more modern dual steering low-stepping design... That's the guys on the job, making that call, _"It should ALWAYS be a Mack! Don't be messing around with someone else!"_

They actually make much more money than that one of my childhood friends he works for the sanitation department and he started off at the age of 20 he's in management now they live in upstate New York and he soon to retire and they also give you part to take in their stock so he won three different ways with a stock a 401k and a pension. I love them I remember getting up early in the morning and rolling the trash cans out and I love sanitation workers guys don't get that much credit or respect you deserve especially dealing with New York City trash and their big rats
