Firefighter OT $221K San Francisco
If you’re looking for a poster boy for the San Francisco Fire Department’s out-of-whack overtime, meet Lt. Gary Altenberg of Station 39 on Portola Avenue.
Thanks largely to staffing shortages that had department management ordering up extra shifts, Altenberg pulled in $221,000 in overtime last year, raising his total paycheck to $363,000.
That’s nearly $50,000 more than what Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White made.
Frederick Binkley, a paramedic/firefighter at Station 51 in the Presidio, was his closest competition, picking up $191,000 in overtime to bring his pay for the year to $337,204.
Three battalion chiefs came next, eaing $113,000 to $124,000 apiece in overtime. That boosted their pay to $316,000 to $332,000 each.
