Only in California can a "Lifegurard" Make in Excess of $100,000

High pay and benefits for lifeguards in Newport Beach, CA is the latest example of frustrating levels of compensation for public employees. More than half the city’s full-time lifeguards are paid a salary of over $100,000 and all but one of them collect more than $100,000 in total compensation including benefits. 

No, I am not kidding.  Once again, I am not that creative to make stuff like this up!  By the way, I am signing up for swimming lessons tomorrow.  Then, hopefully, I can get my lifeguard certificate; and then off to sunny California.
