After the protests against Act 10 in Madison failed, and DOC headquarters took Walker's tools and went to work. The increased costs cut pay, and new work rules were implemented; officers retired-quit-resigned and left the job. <br /><br />After four years the state has been unable to restaff the positions, and all attempts are met with more losses. Mandatory ovedrtime has been crushing, and new employees decide the job isn't worth it, and veteran staff are deciding to get out of a bad situation. The latest rumour is a big raise by January to retain officersf, and if that doesn't happen even more plan to quit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
