Pay is not equal to cost of living (get a 2% cost of living raise when the cost of living goes up 5%) and the raises are rarely given out. So you get your head above water if you are single. ok if you have 2 incomes. Parking is not free to employees. I need to drive to work some days because I go in between foothills and main campus.

It would be nice to have parking for employees only, students park in the A lots all the time and I am not sure how they get an A pass.
