The reason for leaving the recycling center is because the board said they would pay no more than 30 hours a week. I countered that increased volume and the little things like yard and equipment maintenance add up to more hours and if the board would look over the past few years, they would realize my point.

If the combined hours and wages of two employees are more than one person makes at 30 hours at $15 an hour, something’s amiss.
