GHAH! Is this rate rationalized by cost of living in the area, plus irregular work hours?

I am gonna be the a-hole here but sometimes I think the unions have gone to far a backhoe opperator working 40 hours a week is making 170k a year ?!?!?!!? I personally have ran Bobcats and stuff in my day and trying to justify this is a job that deserves a 170k a year is a little far fetched.A lot of unions (not all) have went from protecting the employee to screwing the employer IMO.

That is ridiculous....you know if they are unionized they have to be getting at least 40 hours a week which translates into about 2,920.00 a week....that's almost 12 grand a month!!! WAAAY tooo much money for these machine operators! And they want more?! Even cost of living in new york does not justify that kind of wage IMO!
