TU: City on verge of withdrawing no-pay-cut offer to Jacksonville firefighters

We will have to watch this carefully.  After some of the other money being spent, I think another pay cut will be difficult to get an agreement on.

They have until early July to OK the deal or the city's offer likely will be a  pay cut.

Time is ticking away for Jacksonville firefighters to agree to a city-offered contract that would keep their pay the  same.

That offer will be on the table only until the two sides meet for their next  negotiating session, in early July.

If it's rejected, city labor attorney Derrel Chatmon said following a  Wednesday morning negotiating session, the city's next offer will likely include  a pay cut.

Search: How much did employees of JFRD make in the last fiscal  year?

An earlier offer by the city also included cutting out extra pay earned by emergency medical  technicians. That clause was jettisoned from the offer now under discussion  but could come back in a different deal.

The offer on the table keeps salaries where they are by reinstating a 2 percent cut firefighters agreed to two years ago that  would otherwise expire at the end of this fiscal year.

This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
