People Who Don't Deal With Animals Get Paid the Most

.
The below salaries are from a Daily News article. It gives the salaries of all LAAS employees.

As you can see, the adminsitrative people who never touch an animal unless they have to, get paid the most--except for vets. Vets get paid better than some administrators, but pretty poorly compared to private practice.

I am glad the Chief Vet, Steve Feldman is paid enough to tend to his garden; hope he ets a city car too. Cynthia Hockman gets $92,000. I understand she is at West Valley now replacing Rao.

Interesting that Linda Barth gets paid more than Boks.
