 I'm not living paycheck to paycheck. I'm living a check behind that paycheck to paycheck. If the wages go up, I think, you know, we can stay afloat. And that's all we're asking, honestly, to stay afloat. A park board spokesperson says they're looking at about a 10% increase over three years and are working on a strike plan. The union says that's not enough and still wouldn't match wages of some of our neighboring park systems. Negotiations resume tomorrow, and if no agreement is met, park workers are authorized to strike the next day.
